Default wax removal

I recently bought a DH 12 ga damascus online and Im very pleased to find out I think its in better condition than what I thought when I bought it. the serial number is 76172. It has 32 inch damascus barrels which still show alot of pattern. a couple of shallow dents I will need to eventually deal with but no pitting. In the short term I would like to remove what appears to be 108 years of paste wax that has filled in the checkering and darkened Any suggestions on something that won't affect the original finish (which seems to have been well preserved by the thick wax). A second question did all Ds come with a skeleton Steel Buttplate back then or was a recoil pad available back then. This came with a "recoil pad" that looked like a sponge with strip of red bootsoul but at the top of the stock is a V shaped inlet that I assume was where the spur of a SSBP would have gone. and yes I am going to order a letter on this one .
