Default Covering on GP .25size warplanes

What kind of covering is used on GP small warbirds? GP claims it's Monokote but I tried stripping it off and it doesn't appear to be lke the Monokote
you buy at the LHS. Sometimes the clear film comes off the color and adhesive and sometimes the film and color come off and leaves a thin
film at comes up like a piece of tape or something. Any ideas on how to remove this film? I tried hitting it with the heat gun but that does seem
to work always, the best mthod to date is to use a single edge razor blade and try to get under the sticky film but that can be time consuming.
