Remove a long piece (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strip

I believe this is a double definition.

'remove' is the first definition.
(I know that strip is a type of remove)

'a long piece' is the second definition.
(long strip of material)

(Other definitions for strip that I've seen before include "Series of cartoon pictures - undress salaciously" , "Thin piece" , "Undress completely" , "Remove clothing" , "Remove covering from" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
