Cool

What's a spint stripe, do you mean pinstripe? Most paint shops sell a pinstripe eraser. Mounts on drill and erases the pinstripe. Be very careful as it can remove paint if you're not careful.

or try a heat gun and a solvent. 1 heat up the pinstripe peel it off and then use a solvent to get it off then put some wax on it!
