That plastic base shoe trick I tried on a job in Woburn

I was trimming out a living room last Tuesday and used a heat gun to bend vinyl base shoe around a curved wall like I saw online. It melted through in 3 spots and left a wrinkled mess that the homeowner saw before I could fix it. Anyone else had this fail or am I just bad at reading plastic?

Match made in hell" is right. Did you crank the heat too high right off the bat?
