Removing Pinstripes
 
I got my car recently fixed and painted. And I need to remove the rest of the pinstripes left on the car. Thier painted on. I have heard of using laquer thinnner, but i have also heard that it will damage the clear coat. Razor blades, lighter fluid, etc. Does anybody have any ideas? I is there any products out there that i can buy? If so, where can I get it? Any ideas would be great .

well if they're trully painted on i don't think you can avoid damaging some of the surrounding paint. So just sand them out and then paint over.

if theyre the factory pinstripes, you cannot remove them w/o repainting...or at least re-clearcoating

they did suggest things. why are you ignoring them?

you cant just take off paint. you need to sand it down and prime it then paint it.
