Vinyl stripe? = Heat is your best friend.
Painted stripe? = Goof off, get it at Home Depot. Compound and polish after removal.

I used a small butane torch to heat up the pinstripe,then quickly scraped off the heated part of the stripe..You have to work in small sections using this method..

After it is all stripped off,use goof off to remove the glue,then wax..
