The glue should come off fairly easy if you're careful. The only thing I don't like about metallized films is that they all fade
to a silver after some time. Most times do to exposure to light. They also scratch very easily. The great thing is if they do go bad
you just peel it off and put on some new film! I'm in the process of making my own add on copper film. It's a bit tedious
but once the file is made I can cut it on a plotter anytime I need one. I'm interested to see how it looks. I'm still
not sure how shiny or bright the actual saber in the movie is though. It's hard to tell.

This Kit is emulating the Luke LE from MR
The Movie Saber actually has two versions...( that I won't get into righ now ) but... anyway
This is a High Quality Sign Grade Vinyl Laminated Copper Film.

It does not fade to Silver ever! Because it has a Laminated Coat over the Film surface and it is very scratch resistant.
I wouldn't sell it if it was a fragile foil ;)

Trust me You won't be disapponted with this stuff 8)
