How do I remove the wide and thin decals from the boat. I want to paint these lines later as they are really nicked scraped ETC.

Re: Pinstripe removal

I did the same thing on mine,I used a heat gun but you can use a hair dryer.3M makes an decal/adhesive remover that works well but is $$$$.After you get it off use goof-off to remove the resude and some rubbing compound,clean off and your ready for your new stripes.

I removed one 3 inch stripe and 2 1/2 inch stripes from mine with a hairdryer. It took forever but it saved me money of a heat gun...until my wife made me buy her a new hairdryer. :)
