<p>[QUOTE="blooey, post: 2501969, member: 12007"]If it isn't COMPLETELY dried out you can safely remove it intact without resorting to scraping tearing or otherwise butchering it by repeatedly flooding it with benzine, i.e. Ronsonol, lighter fluid. You can also remove adhesive stickers from delicate paper or leather using benzine. It generally evaporates without and residue and if any adhesive remains, it can be gently swabbed off with benzine and a q-tip.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
