I don't mind too much if the foil doesn't all come off, since it's on the inside where no one will see it.
I did not try to stick the GladWrap to the foam and then lay glass on top of that.

What I did do is lay the glass on top of the foam, and then lay the GladWrap on top of that and put mechanical force on the layup for better adhesion.

If I understand your application correctly, you are attempting to use the Glad Wrap as a PVA of sorts?
