Oh yeah, I helped my friend pull the pin striping off his 2010 Fusion so I know all about how much of a pain that stuff is to get off. I think it ended up taking us two to three hours because we had to go back again and remove the adhesive. I've never been a fan of pin striping at all. I like the clean look without it but that's my preference.

Goo be gone helped quite a bit but it does remove the wax (I re-waxed).

Ya I know not everyone is not a fan of pin stripe, but I am quite a bit older than you Matt and is what I grew up with it (sometimes it's hard to teadch an old dog new tricks)
