if your Hydroturf was installed correctly , you wont be able to reuse it . but the search feature will help you with turf removal tips, and tools

My second time taking off turf. You won't be able to save it. But I used a multi tool with the scraper blade and worked good then used a sanded with 40 grit paper to get off the rest and glue. Just have to keep moving it so you don't go down to the fiberglass.

looks pro. the only thing I do different when I install mine (maybe you did it to), is I put 3m 5200, gorilla glue, or something like that on the back side of the hold before I rivet it shut. it just seals it nice and tight so if the glass ever cracks or leaks you still have some sealant behind there just in case.

i did put some epoxy resin between the hull and the footholds,well i couldn't sleep so went back out to the garage and sanded down the footwells and fiber glass,pour in the foam....anyway all done now all i got to is turf the tray....

i did leave some rivets in for extra support,just for my security
