A method of manufacturing fluid tubing such as fuel or brake tubing utilizes fluid tubing which includes a metal tube with a longitudinal axis, a corrosion resistant metal coating over the metal tube, a binder layer over the metal coating and a plastic coating over the binder layer. A water jet cutter is positioned adjacent to the fluid tubing. The fluid tubing and/or the water jet cutter are moved in a feed direction parallel to the longitudinal axis. The fluid tubing and/or the water jet cutter are rotated about the longitudinal axis. A water jet is jetted from the water jet cutter against the fluid tubing substantially tangentially to the metal tube and at an acute angle to the longitudinal axis, whereby the plastic coating and the binder layer are removed from the fluid tubing and the metal coating remains substantially intact on the metal tube.
