Stripe Removal Hell
After 2 years, the silver checkerboard stripes on my wife's Cooper have begun to tarnish a bit and it is time to get a fresh set.
I've been at it for over an hour working with the hairdryer and my "fingernails", and it is a slow and terrible process.
My main problem is that I chew my fingernails so badly that I really don't have fingernails. What is left of them hurt so badly that I can't keep it up much longer.
Might there be any paint-safe tool that I could use to lift the corners. I've got a technique that seems to work to usually pull the whole square up in one piece, but getting each one started is the hard part.
