Polish + Pinstripes = ???

So...

I'm getting ready to run the whole GlossHaus system on my M635, and just noticed a detail while going over with clay tonight that worries me a little.

Of all the cars I've detailed, none of them have had applied pinstripes, and my M635 does.

I'm going to use the Flex on most of the car, but the pinstripes worry me - any tips on polish and pinstripes?

Thanks in advance!

Here's a look a the pinstripe:

I usually tape up any pinstripes just to be safe.

Crap - I was afraid you'd say that. I just a couple hours taping - the M6 has a lot of trim, nooks and crannies!

Are you using a rotary? I have an UDM and I never tape off trim. I know with a rotary there is a good chance of burning trim, but not too much with an DA polisher.
