What happens here

The process of separating the leather-wrapped trim pieces from their plastic backing is demonstrated. A woman uses a pry tool to carefully separate the leather from the plastic, revealing staples securing the two layers. She then uses a utility knife or similar sharp tool to remove the staples. This is a delicate process to avoid damaging the leather. The back of the door panel is shown, revealing numerous small, stamped plastic clips that originally secured the components. These clips are noted as being brittle and prone to breaking. The worker and creator discuss the difficulty and the fragility of the aged plastic components, leading to some breakage during removal. They discuss ways to reattach components if clips are broken.

Goal: Carefully remove leather-wrapped trim from plastic backings for cleaning and potential re-upholstery.

now excuse the bomb explosion in here we're still getting settled but we got to get this stuff apart those are in there keep this thing going I think that this is like ripping the leather you want to see what's behind the panel on the door so it just had a bunch of these kind of stamped nuts almost like a70s car like the mon Carlos put together with a bunch of these I broke a lot of those yeah they uh that might have been why a bunch of them broke when I took them off either that cuz the plastic was brittle I don't know it was really brittle I was like literally scrubbing them with that little brush and they were breaking well even if they all broke off we can fasten it back together some other way but let's see I think this is part of it too I forgot about that one I'm concerned about these because the water level had part of these panels underwater we may find not very much behind here or maybe the most disgusting thing we've ever seen I don't know what's your prediction I think that the edges will be really gross we might have to uh pry it a little
