If you want your specific question answered, the card would (most likely) get a two point drop in grade, or an ST qualifier, were you to send it in. If you're selling it 'as is,' then I would definitely still call it EX or EX+ but with a notation saying the front has a healthy amount of wax/gum residue on it.
I've used more pairs of panty hose than Liza Minnelli, so getting that stuff off is as simple as it gets. Start gently and see how it works, then start forcing it more. I also take advantage of the various thicknesses of the different parts of the hose, to find the right part to clear the surface.

I've been able to clean wax off with regular white paper towels.

Thanks guys. I was guessing it was gum and not wax because light rubbing with nylon did nothing. I don't want to risk damaging it by rubbing harder.
