Hi Chris,
Initially, I had the same trouble getting the peel ply off the ailerons,
anti-servo tabs and flap closeouts. (mine were factory skinned). What I
discovered
works best was to find the end edge of the ply. Get it started peeling with
an exacto knife or a #11 scalpel blade, a quarter inch will do. Then with a
pair of straight hemostats, clamp onto the end of the ply and roll the ply onto
the hemostats as you peel it up. You'll find all but a thread or two will come
off like opening a sardine can. Any remaining threads can easily be removed
with the exacto knife.
Hope it helps!
Regards,
