Boot Stripe/graphics Removal

[Petrus]

Looking for suggestions as to how to best remove striping and chewed up graphics from from 92 V20. Has any one done this?

I know that the gel coat underneath is going to shine like the sun compared to the rest of the hull- have never buffed out the hull before but am game to try if this is something a rookie can do. Any advice here would be appreciated- thanks guys. This forum is awesome!!!!
