Do I have a damaged capacitor?

209.240.198.63

Hi,

I have a Rel-cap polyproplene cap with a small solder nick on the top edge of the roll with the outer clear casing melted off exposing the layer beneath but its not that deep.

Did I damage the cap or will this affect the performance of the cap short term or long term? I am nervous because the Rel-cap website mentions that improper soldering or too hot a soldering iron near cap could change its operating characteristics.
Do I have anything to worrry about?

Thanks!
