If your careful you shouldn't need either. You might however need a higher wattage iron. I always have 2 irons going when I'm doing mod installs. Any way just heat one leg of the shield at a time and when the solder is liquid enough lift the shield gently and remove the heat until the solder hardens then move onto the next one. Leave the factory solder on the board and the shield legs and then when your all done just reattach it in the same manor you removed it. Hope this helps
edit:
one last thing you mentioned desoldering braid. You wont need it to remove the shield...but its always a good idea to have some around just incase you get some solder into an area where you didnt intend it to do and created a bridge or short. But like I said with the PSX you most likely wont run into this problem as its fairly easy.
