3M makes a rubber wheel (made of eraser-like material) that you put in a drill and literally erase the pinstripes.

I bought one last weekend to erase my stripes and just tried one front corner to see how/if it works and what damage it might do to the paint (black.)

With some patience, it seemed to peel the stripe off rather quickly with NO noticable damage to the paint.

When the weather warms up enough for me to wash the rig and stay in the garage for more than 10 minutes at a time, I'll do the rest of the stripes!
