Someone in another post stated if you use Windex with the ammonia in it, the ammonia would lift the edges of the Mono.
Not really. In fact, Windex could actually help the edges to stick.

Um, let me think about that. People use Windex specifically with ammonia to "float" trim pieces into place and then wipe out the moisture to get it to stick, . . . and it does given time enough to dry. So something is going on there in the way of softening the adhesive. True, people do iron around the edges to seal it in place but it does stick to some degree.

We have a guy at our field that has a nice Great Planes twin that was reduced to shreds before stopping the Windex.
