How do I remove the dried wet paper from a wooden table?
My son kept his drink glass on an old magazine on top of my old wood coffee table. When i removed the magazine (after a day) the magazine covers had dried to the wood. When i picked up the magazine the paper was stuck to the wood. Please help - I understand I may have to re-finish but I am trying to avoid that.
