The 3m wheel does the job, but makes a mess.

I strip the old stripes off with a heat gun and a plastic razor and then clean the gum off with Brake Clean on a towel--works well--in fact real well.

Now remember--after that striping being on there for 20+ years there is going to be a shiney and probabley raised portion of the gelcoat that has been protected all these years. A great Buff out and wax will help hide this--but it will always be there unless you restripe the same area.

Just my .02
