Done my interior bits and they look good, I think you'll find that to do a satisfactory job you'll probably have to practise a number of times and you'll see that when you pull your awful first attempt off that there is no damage or harm to the original piece.

But isn't it stuck down? How do you go about removing it? Heat gun to soften then peel?

It comes off no bother with a little heat from the gun.

Heat gun is safer, as I'd never hear the last of it using the wife's hair dryer
