    Effects of Polishing Pin Striping/Lettering

    Watched some of your videos, but haven't seen anything mentioned about the effects of using a DA over pin striping or lettering taped on the car. Do you do the area on and around the striping by hand, or can you use a DA? Any problems with using various polishes/waxes?

    Re: Effects of Polishing Pin Striping/Lettering

    Have you guys ever polished the stripes on a GT500? I have always been afraid to. Mine have fine toweling marks on them. Would something like PO85RD on a gray with a lower speed wwork without damage?
