Pinstripe Removal - Before and After

**Hardonyomom** · 03-06-2014

So I just got my new wheels on and then started looking at my car and decided, You know what? I need to remove these pinstripes. A heat gun and then some isopropyl alcohol and two hours later here you go

And now the good stuff

Also decided to test out my roof rails ( i am still thinking of painting them to match the car )

Looks much better without the pin stripe.

Leave the rails black, if you paint them to match they don't stand out and they blend in to much with the car.

Any tips for when I go to remove my pinstripe?

**Hardonyomom** · 03-06-2014

Yes, get a heat gun, run it along the area you want to remove. Keep it about 2 inches away and only do about 12 inches or less at a time. Once youve heated all the glue off, it should pull off with your finger nails. Next, get some isopropyl 90 percent alcohol and rub it with a terry cloth or microfiber cloth till you get the glue marks off and repeat a few times. This should get you the results you are looking for.
