Not to hijack, but did your car come with that stripe, or did you install it aftermarket? If the latter, where did you get the kit? My son wants an SS stripe on his car, and I haven't found a kit yet (although I haven't looked very hard either).
I have read many times never to wax flat black stripes. I just got my GT a month ago and will soon wax it. I have heard of using Ultimate Quick Wax spray on them.

I know you have already made up your mind but just something I like to use is Turtle Wax ICE. You can use it on plastic trim, tires, wheels, windows, anything and no white dust or wax marks on anything. I use the stuff on flat black trim all the time. Looks awesome. Smells nice too. Easy on, easy off.Ok, it's been a while, but I have an update on waxing Black Satin Stripes. At the end of the summer I waxed one of the smaller 1 inch stipes when I waxed the entire car. For the most part it did NOT chalk over, but you can see some wax build up on it and some wax build up on both sides where the stripe meets the paint. With a little bit of extra buffing and or using that wax removal stuff it now looks fine.
Will I ever wax it again, NO. From now on, I'll just use some mild spraywax on it.
Joe I too use the Quick wax, so far so good. 3 wax and many washes.I have read many times never to wax flat black stripes. I just got my GT a month ago and will soon wax it. I have heard of using Ultimate Quick Wax spray on them. I also bought some 303 Aerospace spray to protect the stripes and remove wax and stuff. A car detailer told me when he waxes his car with stripes, he masks them off with blue masking tape to avoid getting any wax on them. The factory stripes on my GT I was told is the cheaper calendar stripe material which over times may peel or crack. So I don't want to run the risk of waxing them which may cause problems down the road. Remeber the Amorall issue?
