So I'm trying to remove the beading of the glazing on my new rear UPVC door, because it's currently glass, and I want to change it for a UPVC panel with a cat flap (so when we go to sell the house, I can swap out the cat flap panel for the glazing again)
From how-tos online it looks like it should be easy, but a combination of the fear of mangling the beading, and the beading being very tight has got me stuck.. I just can't seem to get it off. I purchased a moon knife for the job, but that's even thicker than the scraper I was already using..
I suppose I'm looking for a sanity check, because I feel like I'm already butchering the beading but getting nowhere.. how should I be trying to remove this?

Do I just need to be more.. violent? Any tips?
