I have a taxi that has the Mylar bubbling near Santa at the top of the PF. I have read the guides about heating and pressing down, but am wondering if I should just carefully cut it out since it’s on the edge. No paint is stuck to the Mylar but I also can’t tell if the Mylar has the swirls or the actual playfield.

Part of me wants to take the Mylar off, but i feel like it may have been added later after it was
Already scratched.

Zoverall goal is to finish the top side cleaning and then wax, reassemble and play.

Thanks for the help.
