Pin Stripe Removal

[USMC0369]

Is there anyone that knows how to get ride of the nasty pin stripes that are on my 1998 Pathfinder. I have heard that you can use a blow dryer that will heat up the adhesive but haven't tried as of yet. They are starting to crack and they look like crap.

You are in for a lot of fun! No matter how you remove the decals you will still have trouble getting the glue off. I have used one similar to this wheel and it worked pretty good with the combination of automotive goo off. the goo off softens the glue and the wheel rolls the glue into balls that can be wiped off without damaging the paint but its no quick process.

Good times for sure...I agree with James above, best way to remove these stock ones for sure. I have personally done the hair dryer trick, and I don't wish that eveil on no one. You will hate life for at least a week if you go that route.

 

Also, rubbing alcohol (isoprene I believe, and it has top be over 90%) helps to remove the adhesive. Not much, but it works a little.

Thanks for the help I guess I will have to try everything till it comes off. I will let you know what worked the best.

I removed mine on a really warm day when the truck was sitting out in the sun.

 

WD40 will get rid of sticker glue.
