Facade even confused Cockney girl (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

veneer

'facade' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'even confused cockney girl' is the wordplay.
'confused' indicates an anagram.
'cockney girl' becomes ''er' ('her' - 'her' refers to a girl or woman - said with a cockney accent, dropping the 'H').
'even' anagrammed gives 'vene'.
'vene'+'er'='VENEER'

(Other definitions for veneer that I've seen before include "Superficial shine" , "Thin coating on a surface" , "Thin layer of wood or plastic" , "Thin skin on surface" , "Thin layer on surface, often of furniture" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
