The acid mantle is formed over the epidermis to protect the skin from microbes( dirt, grime, bacteria or any foreign debris) This acid mantle is composed of oil from your sebaceous glands and water from the sudoriferous glands. and when oil and water mixed at the top of the skin, its a barrier protector.

Is earwax part of the immune system?
Yes, it is. Microbes can get in through any hole in your body, and your ear holes are one of them. The ear wax is a sticky substance that stops microbes from infecting your ears and letting your body get infected by microbes. Further answer I personally don't see it as part of the immune system. Defence system - yes, immune - no. The immune system fights bacteria and other foreign bodies by developing anti-bodies which kill them, generally in the blood stream. Not quite the same thing as stopping stuff getting into your ear in the first place.
