Default wax and fiberglass/polyester resin

So PVDC will peel right off?

I don't know that I would risk it with household Saran wrap. Being very
thin it can tear and leave little bits that are the devil to get off. I
made that mistake with a Saran peelply that was to thin. I needed a lot of
stretch for that particular part. It stretched fine but came off in strips.
Nylon would have been much better.

I generally don't like films as a curing barrier for polyester. A wax
sanding aid additive works better and doesn't disturb the surface.
