Default Removing deck hatch

I was thinking about taking the deck hatches off to paint, is it as simple as removing the pin from the hinge. It`s an 87 I believe they are aluminum i think. Just looking for suggestions.

Thanks

You got it...2: hinge pins and one at the lift and your done. It helps to have an extra set of hands to take it off and to re position it.
