For years (since 1967) I have been told to put the print, et. al. in an oven at 375- 425 degrees for no more than five minutes, and the drymount tissue releases. Use an oven with window, THE PRINT WILL NOT BURST INTO FLAMES AND BURN, and watch as the corners begin to peel back. At the appropriate time, pull it out of the oven and VOILA! It's off.
