Default PL259 (again)

Is there a recommended way of getting the coax out of a previously-used and
cable-cut
PL259 but without overheating and distending the PTFE****** core?

(Had to cut the plug from the shed end of the cable when removing the 2m
colinear to a new location,
5 ft lower than it was , but still sited well enough to enable one to vomit
when listening to
the CB types (M3 & M6 licensees) on the distant repeaters.



***** polytetrafluoroethylene IIRC, but when used for plumbing, it stands
for,
"Plastic Tape For Engineers" :-)
