S&G: First problem with first build

Well I two hours in to my build and have my first problem. I used ziplock bags under my seams so the boat wouldn't stick to the wood. But guess what they will stick to zip lock bags. So what would be the easiest way to get the remaining zip lock bag pieces off my kayak? So I can epoxy that side. I thought about using my sander but don't want to take to much wood off the side. Oh and as luck would have it, the plastic stuck to what will be the out side of my kayak. And for future glassing what would be the best thing to place under the seams? I guess mylar but pygmy didn't give me enough. So any help would greatly be appriciated. Thanks Nate Lacy
