I am detailing my buddies car for the winter and he has vinyl racing stripes up the middle of his mistang. I don't have any experience with vinyl, but it seem obvious to me that you would not want to use even the lightest abbrasive on vinyl. However, there should be no harm in waxing over it right? Please correct me if I am wrong.

You are OK to wax....I always polish/wax my graphics with the rest of the car....

great, thanks. So, I am right when I assume that I should not use a swirl remover on them though....????

How old is the vinyl? If its not brittle, you should also be OK.....I would try a small spot first!
