helped a friend take his stripes off. the eraser wheel worked better than the heat gun for any of the old cracked stripes. any stripes that were not cracked came off pretty easy with the heat gun. if they were cracked, the heat gun and scrapper only worked to the next crack. we used 4 eraser wheels(on a 33 ft 1993 aerobus). we lightly sanded after we were finished and repainted the front(will get to the sides/rear someday) it really looks so much better with the old stripes off(even the unrepainted sides) that my friend has waxed back and forth on stripes vs no stripes vs a mural vs plain white etc. before repainting you can see the "ghost" from the old stripes--still looks better than before. it is work but sorta fun and well worth it
