Default Help removing pinstripes

Any tips or suggestions on removing the pin stripes down the side. All the color has come off and now it's just glue.

3M has a hard rubber wheel you attach to a drill takes a little time but it did the job used it on hull of my boat so I know it works in-fact I picked it up @ advance auto just ask the employee at the store what you need it for they also have a solvent bought the two together specifically made for removing pinstripes

The 3M solvent does a good job just by itself. Well, that and some elbow grease.

Every detailer worth his salt has a can of 3M General Purpose Adhesive Remover on hand. It's expensive, but it works great. I usually buy it at a local auto paint supply store because it is not readily available at all hardware stores.
