Thought I would share. This stuff takes the OEM or Aftermarket painted pinstripes right off. Of if you had a work vhicle with a painted logo on it or graphic. It did not hurt my clear coat at all.

I'd still be worried about clearcoat personally.

Yeah, this stuff is evil. I would seriously keep it away from your car's paint.

Might have to try that on the boat to get the PO's painted-on (mis-spelled) name off (a little at first, though). It would beat wet-sanding.

Well...you can't see the damage that the Easy Off did to your clearcoat...but take a look in a few months or years...Easy Off is LYE...it's caustic...it's like putting battery acid on your paint except that it's on the other end of the PH scale...I don't even use it to clean my tablesaw blade anymore...too strong...

With all the chemicals and processes available, what possessed you to use oven cleaner?

The pin stripe would not come off unless I wetsanded with 1000. I did not want to do that as it was close to the body line, and there is a factory orange peel to the paint. When you get down into the 1000 ,1500 you will tend to make the factory paint look like a sheet of glass and it will look wrong compared to the rest of the paint. I used a magic eraser and easy off. Took the stripe off instantly and I buffed the clear and hand waxed it. Came out perfect.
A local graphics shop that decals vehicles also paints & airbrushes vehicles for busineses. When they are done with the vehicle the shop will often remove their paint with this easy off cleaner. This is where I got the idea.
People tend to over react with clear coats, everything you put on them wears them away little by little. In the north here I never have to worry, the cars rot off their frame before the paint / clear fails.
