Thanks - will search for previous threads. The skirting I am using is Beech
finished MDF to match the floor.

OK. You should find that if you are careful with the plug cutting
that the veneer will remain stuck to the MDF. However, the fitting
technique would be a little different.

After popping the plugs out of the piece of material used to make
them, you will need to remove some of the MDF from the back as you
can't sand the surface. You should then be able to push the plug into
place flush with the surface using a block of wood and gently tapping
with a hammer. Obviously practice a bit first and if there is a
noticable grain, try to align the grains of the plug and the base
material.
