[Shotimes] pinstripe

Easy Off oven cleaner is the best way to remove painted pinstripes and
monograms.  Apply it with a "Q-tip", let it sit for a moment, then wipe off
with a damp cloth.  A few applications should remove all traces of the
pinstripe.  A little polish/wax should finish the job nicely.  This process
may reveal how faded the entire car's paint is on older cars that don't have
a clear coat finish.

Subject: [Shotimes] pinstripe


None of my SHOs came with a pinstripe along the side, just above the crease.
My wife's 95 LX wagon did come with one, and I have seen them on many Tauri.
Does anyone know which cars got a pinstripe?  Was it a factory or a dealer
item?

Also, was it painted on?  It does not appear to be a tape or sticker.

The white pinstripe on my wife's dark green car has faded.  Any tips for
refurbing it or removing it?
