Have you tried a search yet? I know there was a thread not too long ago (2-3 months) about 13/14 stripes. Someone posted the schematics with the stipe part #'s.

Yes I use a foam lance to suds the car,and a big gentle fan tip to rinse.... Which my son switched to wash his 4 wheeler and I did not notice till it was to late.

I did the same exact thing trying to get burned rubber off. Ended up ordering from Ford at the dealer. Had to get the whole side. Was around $180 or so. Lot of people told me of other places/prices, but to me I wanted to MAKE SURE it matched. I put it on myself and looks good as it did from the factory.

Made me sick when it happened. Was just glad you can't even tell it now. A bit tedious though.

Well when you make a dumb mistake you should have to pay the price,I will gladly pay the $$$$ to make sure it's right,still can't believe I did it.

Don't be so hard on yourself. You learned just like I did. Wasn't like it happened due to negligence. You just tried to care too much for her! We all can relate to that one!

Get it fixed and she'll be good as new.

Call them up and give them your VIN, they can give you the price that way.

Ahh.. I see now. I use one of these for about the same result -

It's great for foaming but the nozzle sucks for rinsing. I usually have to switch over to an adjustable nozzle to get a good rinse.

^^dumb question but do you handwash after you spray down with those things?

I have the same foamer and i foam the car let it sit for 5 mins ( not in direct sun light) then rinse off and move onto a two bucket wash.

then what's the benefit?

the foamer lifts the crap off of the paint and you then rinse it. then while doing my two bucket wash theres less of a chance to have some contaminets get into my wash pad and scratch the paint.
