what is the best way to remove pinstripes so you cannot tell that there was ever any?

Z24/Z28

Just peel them off. They are just a sticker and don't leave any glue behind. Just took off pin stripes myself.

Same here, just pulled them off, came off without a problem, the pic in my sig shows them with them still on. Looks way better without them. Good luck.

When you first remove them, there will be a little residue left behind, it will come off with time, and washing.

I had pinstripes on my 93 Probe GT that I took off. Used a hair dryer and then some 3M Adhesive Remover to get the rest of the stickum off. Worked great.

This weekend I replaced my front bowtie -- used a hairdryer and then some Goof-Off. That worked just as well. I was a little afraid of the paint getting screwed up with that stuff but it was fine.

Use a hair dryer. They will come off MUCH easier that way. And if they leave any adhesive, do NOT leave it on. You can get it off. You can buy this stuff called RIGH OFF at your local auto shop or advance store.

It isn't too bad, just take your time

I also took the dealer stickers off, they don't pay me to advetise for them.

the left side of my car has faded, sun baked dry pinstripes on it, i took the whole right side off with ease, but i have no idea how to get the stuff off, i have tried goo gone to saturate it, tar and bug remover, a hair dryer...

i can't get the sunbaked ones off, someone told me that i can use a lacquer thinner on it, and they should come right off, but i wasn't sure if this would mess up the paint or not.

i need help on this!!!! FAST!!!!!

3M Makes a "buffing" pad that fits in a drill to remove them.

i have been lookin at that....

is it good for extremely dried out pinstripes?? can it harm the paint?? what is the processof taking it off?

blind527

Is nail polish remover good for removing baked in pinstripes? I have pinstripes on the left side of my car that are absolutely baked in. Does nail polish remover help take out any adhesive as well from stickers?

I found out mine were painted on the hard way. I heated up the area with a hair dryer and picked at it with my nails... took some of my paint off too. damnit. Anyways, if they were painted on like mine, I used EZ off oven cleaner. I sprayed it on, wiped it off then rinsed with alot of water... didnt damage my paint. Maybe I was just lucky or something but I found that out by surfing the net.
