How to buff out pin striping?

[brices123]

Anyone know a good trick to remove desert pin striping? One 393 last weekend, my 2006 came back with a lot of new pin stripes, and I would like to get rid of them. I have read that you can use toothpaste (whitening type works the best), or I can use a metal polish, or rubbing compound. But I was curious if anyone had any tricks.
Thank you.

Take it to @murf.

Waxing more frequently after a trip to CBT helps a lot.

Brice a good Detailer should be able to take them out. I had a lot of pin striping too after 393. I had our best Detailer at my shop do a good polish and I can say most of them all came out.

Yup, a good detailer does the trick.
I washed the truck, used a clay bar, used a fine machine polish, then hand waxed the truck. I would say 95% of the pin stripes came out.
Now I need to clean the inside!

1. Keep promising your wife that it'll buff out.
2. Go wheeling again.
3. Lather, rinse, repeat...

4. Replace rear bumper

Wet sanding and buff the rest of the 5%?

Buy a 2017.

Just buy a white truck, they'll blend right in!

He had one.

He has a 2014. Or, Tina has a white 2014

I don't think Tina is going to give up her baby.

I don't think Tina is going to give up her baby.

@aztlctina loves to go offroading in her 200, she is not fond of the pin stripes. She has taken it a couple of places, including Sheep's Bridge, which is why it now has White Knuckle sliders on it.

Tina might love a new 2017 Landcruiser in white and Brice could take the 2014. Then again, maybe I am projecting.

Any recommendations on a good detail shop to have this done in Phoenix/Scottsdale area. I have a black 4runner that has a lot on the sides, I don't think they are very deep so someone who knows what their doing should be able to fix em up?
