In Response To: Strip: Hatch Seal (Clayton Plunkrtt)

: Hey Builders,
: After a year or more I wanted to replace the seal on my hatches. When I tried
: to remove the seal it left the thin clear plastic strip that the glue is
: stuck to. I tried to use "Goof Off" without much success.

I just did this last week. I used the "Goof Off" and it just softened the clear plastic. Then I was able to use a razor blade to peel it right off as long as it was still wet with the "Goog Off". Good luck.
