Hi Tracypowell,,

You're in the correct place. Yes there is aluminum but it's not an interior skin. What you'll see is some insulation and the backside of the end cap skins.

Kevin is right. You'll see the back side of the exterior. Not what you want to uncover. Is there a reason you'd like to find out?

Have you thought of a textured paint? If you could get some glue into the cracks, then lightly scuff it down when dry and paint over it, it may clean it up a bit.
