so, i've got the two little pinstripes things on the side of my car and i need to get rid of em. i think i read something not long ago about a couple people that have done that. i'm just wondering how to get em off safely without damaging the paint underneath.
thanks |

I worked at a chevy dealership for about 2 months last summer and they still put pinstripes on nearly every car that comes in to "pro pack" in other words..get them ready to sell..take out all plastic and label and such..on some cars it looked ok..but some...me and another guy made the choice of color and im assuming that there is guys that have no taste at all and put some of these pinstrips on with wierd colors..and we just picked at them with fingers..like we used warm water to help..but that was right after we applyed the pinstripe..over time, I don't know if that would work.
