Iain, I used a gel type paint remover with a plastic scraper as recommended by Debra at Kitfox. (She can deny that and I would back her up, we don't need any liability issues popping up. But that is what I used.) Brush it on and wait awhile for it to work. It wrinkled the plastic wrap and then was removable with the plastic scraper. Don't do it in your living room while your watching TV, don't ask how I know.:rolleyes:

I also used a gel type paint remover on flaperons that were over 15 years old. Tried bunches of other stuff first. JImChuk
