Default If you want to remove your stripes..

http://www.beacongraphics.com/adhesive-remover.html

I tried automotive Goo Gone, 3m adhesive remover, etc.
This stuff is what the pros use to remove the adhesive.
IT IS AWESOME and works perfectly!
Get the plastic scrapers / plastic razor blades and you will be very happy you did!

2 hours start to finish. Could not be easier. Just keep the surface wet with water and it works better : )

Two hours to remove the stripes and to get all the sticky off the car : )
Na, I LOVED my stripes. Dealer just did a crappy job and I am getting them off to put them on how I want.

How old were your stripes?
I removed my added on side stripes after about a year with a hair dryer and it was pretty easy. They would break before I could peel off more than about a foot, but no left over goo at all!

Ditto that. I took my rocker stripes off after two years, barely needed the hair dryer, and no uckky stuff left behind. Can't even tell they've been there.

Dealer did not use automotive materials and they did not come off clean.
Hood's adhesive was yellow after the stripes came off.
Trunk was pure white. Etc
It was the stripe job from h*ll

Just another unfortunate instance which proves- Never Get Stripes installed at a Dealership!
