    I have 2 aluminium greenhouse shelves covered in a blue protective film, is this stuff supposed to peel off easily??? :gaah: I am beginning to wonder if I am supposed to leave it on!!! can't believe how difficult it was.

    It should peel off easily Val , its a protective layer to stop the soft aluminium scratching in transit.
