I bought some painted clocks a few days ago but they didn't come with the clear plastic that goes over them. I was wanting to swap my old one over to the new one for neatness sake but it is glued down really hard. What's the best way to seperate it, I was thinking either hair dryer or oven maybe?

Heat and a sharp craft knife.. Plenty of patience is also required,

get the plastic off a set of tigra clocks, most of them just clip off rather than glue. cut the clips off and glue on to your corsa ones.
