Pin Stripping

[Bcozzi71]

I looked but didnt find anything. Is there anyway to remove the pinstriping besides the 3m thing/ Thats $40 bucks i dont want to spend on it.

Go to a paint supply store and ask them. I bought a wheel that you place on you drill or grinder and it's almost like a big eraser and it takes them right off with out harming the paint. i can take a pic of it when i get home if you want.

you could just take off what you can and use adhesive remover like goo be gone to remove the rest. i have a bottle of goo be gone somewhere but i would have to look for it though.

Brian,
If peteypete doesn't can't find his, check Home Depot, they carry it (at least they do here).

The tool itself was only 10 bucks. I will take a pic when i get off of work.

is it that bad, cause im looking into adding some on mine to give it more lines for the car since my side moldings are the same color as my body.

Goo off stuff didn't work for me at all.

[dandroz240]

I asked my brother who has done it before, he says this is the best bet Tool

[Bcozzi71]

pete just stoped by with the goo gone and it works just slowly....i think if i put it on and use this tool it should work . As for puting them on i hate them.... my lx doesnt have them and it looks so much better ...

[ric3rboi23]

well it looks better on than it does partially off with just the adhesive showing.. a car just like mine was parked right next to me when i came out of the mall and the owner peeled the stripe off but left the stickyness and it looked so ugly >.>
but on would generally only look good if it goes with your cars color scheme..

yea im gonna paint it this summer anyway so i will have to see what i do till than

[Straight Success]

Yea. I did this last summer. I used a light sand paper, and I wet sanded them off. When they were all gone, I used TurtleWax polishing compound to blend everything in. I washed the car first before applying the compound. Just take your time, and don't sand too deep. Go with a light grit sand paper. My car looks like they were never there ater 14 years.

i used a heat gun (aka hairdryer) and just peeled mine off
worked really well and got all the adhesive off with it
