is it possible to remove the accent stripe that runs the length of the car without hurting the paint, it seems like it may just be a vinyl pinstripe from the factory? any ideas thanks

yes,
I know you can buff that stuff off with an orbital and a good compound but I haven't tried it.

watch out on corners and raised ridges. it will burn right through the paint with too much pressure in one spot.

I took the stupid pinstripe off my Brother car. Its just vinyl so pull it off slowly and clean the sticker marks off with some polish.

3m make a thing that fits in a drill. It's a eraser for stripes. I think you can get it at napa

DO NOT use this on the paint of your car. It WAY to much for what he needs. the stripe should pull off by hand and wipe clean with some light polish.
