Brief Description:  Interior Baggage Door Skin

While waiting on the baggage door supports to arrive, worked on the nemesis skin, the interior baggage door skin. There was no way this was peeling off , it just came off in tiny pieces. The blue poly appears to be much thinner than normal, and there are numerous fine lines in the plastic.

Used a hand dryer and exacto knife straight blade to gently remove the blue poly in small strips. This left a rather thick coating of the glue previously holding on the blue poly, which took several applications of goo-be-gone and lots of pressure to remove.

Once removed, and cleaned up, the skin looks fine, no scratches in the skin from using the exacto straight blade, and is ready to use to build the baggage door.
