Hair dryer/heat gun also works though it's not as easy on the old "crispy" stripes. Concentrated citrus degreaser will remove the adhesive quickly. That's the method we use to remove the decals on all of our decommissioned police cruisers. I also used the "decal eraser" on a Bronco II I bought that had the running horse graphics on it. Worked well, used up 2 of them and took a WHILE, but that was a lot to remove.

Oh, my bad also, I was thinking pin-stripping too.
For my F250 badges, I used a hair dryer to wwarm them up slightly, and then took fishing line behind it working back and forth ............. they popped right off:

If your talking about "stripes" that cover where two different color panels meet, use an eraser wheel on a drill. If your talking about body molding, cut through the adhesive using fishing line. Then use an eraser wheel to get off the extra adhesive.
