<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 327739, member: 37"]Preserving the paper is kind of a lost cause, though I could see it lacquered in place. Whether or not it would actually be durable over time, remains to be seen. I would remove the paper but not touch the table otherwise to preserve the paint. Would think that water would soften the paper enough to get it off. Hopefully, the glue is water soluble as well. Once off, a coat of paste wax should preserve and heighten the color of the wood and paint.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
