DO NOT USE A RAZOR BLADE, EXACTO KNIFE OR ANY OTHER KIND OF KNIFE. Don't ask
me how I know.
I ended up using a piece of duct tape, ripped down the middle to about 1 inch
wide. Stick this over the holes with an inch or 2 hanging over the skin edge
(to grab on to). Pull up the tape and the vinyl come with it (with a little
coaxing at the beginning), except that you would end up pulling it all off so
you carefully cut the vinyl along the sides of the tape as you pull up.
This does take time. I did it on the HS and VS skins. I didn't bother with
the Rudder and Elevators cuz they have the multitude of stiffeners. I took it
all off (as they used to say)
