removing the 2 pin stripes on the side of your car

What i recommend:
a)hair dryer
b)quick detailer
c)water
d)alcohol
e)terry cloth

pull thepinstrips off slowly, as you use the hair dryer around it. afterwards, use alcohol and the terry cloth to slowly remove the left over glue. then use water to clean the alcohol off, and then use quickdetailer to clean it one more time and rewax

- i took mine off last week.
- here's a hint: have your car sit in the sun for awhile then take your finger nail and peel off the end of the pinstripe. once you get a grip you can just pull it off. but take your time. it took me about 5 minutes to do one side.
