    Never heard that, ever

    Why would it.be OK for "auto body work" to remove a pinstripe, but not for a hobbyist to remove a pinstripe

    I am confused, please tell us more

    Clay will do Zero to a pinstripe, regardless of if it is painted on or vinyl

    The 3M wheel works fine as does a plastic razor and a heat gun/hair dryer. Be sure to follow up with some adhesive remover to remove any left over glue. Then hit the area with a little polish and wax and you are done.

    I've always used an eraser wheel.
