Look at this link towards the bottom of the page. *It has some good
details on getting rid of the film covering.


Hey, guess what? Hot water works, I just poured boiling water over a
K-6 canopy that must be 30 years old. The protective covering was hard
as a rock. Boiling water made it soft and rubbery and I was able to
get one side started and then peal the whole covering off. Anyone need
a K-6 canopy? Also have 2 open Cirrus forward canopies and a blue rear
Cirrus canopy (mounted). and a Minstrel canopy, all with rock hard
protective covering that we now know how to remove.
