I am planning ahead to when I get to start the bodywork on my brother's Duster. We are using a pair of 1968 Dart fenders from a real 68 Dart GTS. The problem is that the fenders have factory tape stripes on them. Can anyone suggest a good method for removing the factory tape stripes? Thanks! |

Heat gun will soften them up. Propane torch will work too, just don't stay in one spot too long. |

Thanks! What about those 3M decal remover wheels? The fenders are going to be repainted after the stripes are removed. |

I've had good luck with those, but the last time I used one it was to remove factory stripes that were about seven years old. Can't say if (much) older stripes will be easier or harder; give it a try.

Thanks! I'll give them a go. As much fun as it is to play with fire, it isn't my tool of first resort. |
