pinstripe removal


Recommended Posts

remove pinstripes. This is really for my girlfriends car. Also does anybody know how to fix the headliner in the car. Any help would be appreciated.

I removed the 4x4 stickers from my truck with a hair dryer on low setting, working it slowly across the sticker.  Once I got it warm enough to pull a corner up, I just aimed the hairdryer at the part that was releasing itself from the paint.  It took about 5 minutes per side.  Then a coat of wax and it looks great!!!

 

They make headliner glue, and it'll work for awhile, but it seems like once they come loose they will never be right...  :thumbs:

For the pinstriping I'd take a trip down to NAPA.  They've got some 3M stuff that you can spray on and let it sit for a while.  It "eats" away the pinstriping.  Makes the job a lot easier than removing it w/a  blowdryer.  It costs about 6 bucks a can.

 

As for the headliner, what's the problem w/ it?  If it's cloth that's sagging break out the blowdryer and heat it up.  Some times it will re-stick.  If that doesn't work get some spray on adhesive and try that.  If it's leaking, I would take it down and try to find the leak and seal it up.  Be sure to do something if there's rust starting in the leaky area.
