Its easy enough to get the acutal stripes off but what would be the best thing for removing the left over residue? I tried some solvent s**t thats in the shed but it didnt work that well. I was thinking metho but would that harm the paint at all?

Ok the f**k stripes at the front have gone hard and the hairdryer trick isnt exactly working too well. Need some advice.

You'll probably need to take the car to your local car signage place. The adhesive they use to hold stripes onto cars is very tough and needs special chemicals to get off properly.

Since you live in SA, I'd recommend you try ProLine signs on Main North Road, near Gepps Cross, Ph: (08) 8349 6002. They put the stripes on my XR6 and did a good job, and also mentioned they've got all the gear to get them off easily too.

Sweet, they are fairly close to me, might give them a ring tomorrow if i cant get the crap off tonight.

hey mate i got mine off the old ea got some strong acidy type of stuff like i mild sort of "a/c Bite" and peeled it abit sprayed and got the goo off and wiped with a clean cloth or get some prepsol.... and yeah it is a goo remover etc
