pinstripe adhesive
 

does anyone know what takes this off fast and easy without removing paint

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

I just got the edge with a razor and pealed it up on my truck but you may need a heat gun to do older stuff.

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

well i have a heat gun and a razor blade and the pinstripe comes off easily but i cant get the sticky ---- off

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

stuff called goof off.

or acetone. might take a little clear off with it though.

Thats the best thing. You dont want to use anything else (I worked at a bodyshop) you will scratch the clearcoat using a razor blade.

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

also when using a tool like this u have to be gentle with it and make sure you don't leave it in one place the long.....it will heat up pretty good if ur not moving back and fourth constantly

****NON-ACETONE NAIL-POLISH REMOVER****

Easiest way ever, helps if you have a buffer though too. Doesn't ---- the clear ;)

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

and dont rev the ---- out of the tool. i just keep it as low as possible. If you start reving it you will start to burn the paint, but it works flawlessly if you know how to use it.

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

+ 1 for the wheel its the only and best way.

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

the wheel works awsome, thats what we use at Carmax to pull the pinstriping and adhesive off at the same time

be carefull using a a lot of those glue adhesive removers on paint because some of them will take the paint off.

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

Which is why I was saying hit it with the NON-acetone nail polish remover, it starts to decompose the vinyl and the adhesive. :y

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

where do you get one of those at

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

nvm i found it doing alittle bit of searching on the web

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

if you just get one of the eraser heads for the matco....it fits a drill.....the cheaper option i use in the shop is 3M adhesive remover in the spraycan

Re: pinstripe adhesive
 

i used goof off to get some paint off my impala. it worked good and dident eat through my clear coat
