dommage en raison de l'épluchage
I think it should read "damage due to peeling", and therefore relates to damages caused by peeling and not damage to peeling

peeling
I Googled one of the sentences. At https://www.*******.com/news/pressure-vessel-inspection-chec... I found this sentence:
'Corrosion of the outer surface, damage to the insulation layer, peeling, moisture, cooled-air loss; abnormal vibration, noise, and friction of adjacent pipes or components.'
I'm pretty sure that when someone edited this to use it for another product, they either forgot 'insulation layer' or wanted to remove 'damage to the insulation layer' but accidentally left in the beginning. I would still check with the client if 'insulation layer' should be there or not.

Forgot to translate this, as we'd had some monolingual questions, but this one should indeed have been translated. Silly me. My proposal simply meant to leave only (the translation of) peeling for the reason I mentioned.

| I was given a very sharp deadline for this project and no answer was given by the end client, so I simply went for it. Many thanks. |

: link to your ref. https://www.dfctank.com/news/pressure-vessel-inspection-chec... where these ******* came from? Very plausible, but this ST is more or less hopeless - should be "returned to sender" as it's not just inconsequential chit-chat.

Oh, I just didn't want to expose the Asker's end client. I would certainly clarify such issues with my client if I was sent such a hopeless text, instead of asking in Kudoz. As you say, we can't be sure.

Discussion
'peeling' normally refers to a type of defect — so it is hard to see how / why one might have damage to it! I would say it was probably meant to be 'damage in the form of peeling', which would then make sense; or of course, simply 'peeling'
Unless this 'peeling' is something else that might get damaged; for example, some kind of peel-off protective film.
Either way, i think you have some dodgy text here and may need to try to go back to source.
