While most trucks come in the same basic body shape, they vary greatly from there. Some trucks have tinted windows and some have multicolored paint jobs. People love to stick magnets that support their favorite cause or sports team on their tailgates and dealers seem to love to put pinstripes along the sides of their trucks. And while some truck owners love those pinstripes, many do not.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Hair dryer or heat gun
  • Small rubber spatula
  • Goo Gone
  • Soft wash cloth
  • Damp wash cloth
  1. Step 1

    Using a hair dryer, heat the pinstripe on your truck.

  2. Step 2

    Peel the pinstripe away from the paint using a small rubber spatula.

  3. Step 3

    Squirt some Goo Gone onto your soft wash cloth and rub it over any remaining residue left over from the pinstripe. Rub in a circular motion.

  4. Step 4

    Wipe away the Goo Gone with your damp wash cloth. The pinstripe and any remaining reside should now be removed.

Tips & Warnings
  • Pulling slowly on the pinstripe will stop the it from ripping. If the pinstripe rips it could be difficult to pull it up again.
  • Metal or plastic spatulas can scratch your truck's paint job.
