How hard is it to remove pin stripping? Mine is fading and I want to remove it and put more on. Any one have an easy way to remove it?

I removed the pin-striping from my old ranger by using a hair dryer. It takes a lot of time and patience to do it, but looks nice once it's done. Start on one end, and heat the sticker. You have to go super slow though.


Thanks Yellowcoyote, I wondered if this method would work, like the way people debadge.

I just used that method to take pinstripes off of a trailer. I then goo-goned it to get any remaining adhesive off, and it worked well.

Thats the way to do it, I change the color of my striping about every 16/18 months and it works everytime. So far have had orange, blue and now silver!

If you can wait until July, go out on a hot 90+ degree day at about 2 in the afternoon - you may not need the heat gun :)

I thought this was going to be about the other kind of pin striping.

That's not pin stripping, those are war wounds!
