Finally finished removing the old, faded side stripes from my '75 Palm Beach! It took three of the eraser wheels chucked in my drill and about five hours of time, but I finally succeeded in removing them. There is still a bit of adhesive that I need to remove, but I think the flapper eraser wheel is the best way to go.

Now it's time to attack the old Imron paint with rubbing compound and a buffer. Darn, that coach looks like a lot of square feet of buffing, but every journey starts with a single step!

I'm thinking of trying some Plasti-Dip to replicate the stripes as it can be easily removed if needed.
