    WANTED: Pin Stripe removal (Dallas area)

    Looking for someone reputable that can do this with a fair price.... The pin stripe is painted on, but I did a little test spot with lacquer and it took it off easily. Thing is, I don't have a buffer anymore to remove the residue that it leaves behind. Located in Lewisville, TX. Let me know!

    Tire brush/cleaner? Need recommendations

    Look for recommendations on a tire, not wheel/rim, cleaner and brush. How are the brushes at Walmart, Target and Autozone? What should I use besides the brush to clean? The tires just have tire shine on them and was never really cleaned off before applying again over time, no browning.
