I have noticed the ends of a lot of my vinyl stripes are starting to peel up. Is there any good way to reattach them without smearing some kind of glue all over my finish?
 
I assume you are asking about your boot and trim stripes. Try clear nail polish (Sally Hansen Hard as Nails) worked on mine.

That is definitely the trick! I've also used clear touch up paint as I thought it would hold up better in the sun but a lot of stores don't carry it.
 
That sounds like a perfect solution. Thanks guys! Ill go pick some up and try it out this weekend (and I thought the most awkward I would ever feel in a super market was buying my first condoms)
 
Depending on the area and how much is lifting you could just trim them with a fresh new razor blade. Just try to reshape what you trim off to not be obvious. The clear isn't a bad idea to try first though.
 
It might be a good time to just replace the stripes. Find a good sign shop, many of them can make up the stripes for you.
