They are printed vinyl to get the G on them and are horificaly expensive for some stripes.
Carefull with the IPA and don't go mad with the pressure washer. Mine have survived Iron-X and Wolfs which got rid of the rusty patches on them, They have also had a light buffing with final finish and a polishing pad on a DA but avoiding the corners where they are more likely to start lifting.

I just wash them! Taken to industrial Jet Wash a few times and hand scrubbed nothing seems to budge them, maybe im just lucky!
I use a regular Karcher pressure washer without any problems although I wouldn't recommend aiming it close to the stripes just in case.
As for polishing I'd tape them up if machine polishing but by hand there's nothing to worry about. In fact I actually used Meguiars polish on the stripes themselves on an ex's 182 with stripes, they didn't budge either but came up a lot whiter. lol
