Removal of paper from substrate

Dick Sullivan suggested that paper that had been previously affixed
to a substrate (in my case plaexiglass) by dry mounting could be
removed by reheating.

I tried this. It didn't work. I even tried going up to a temperature
considerably higher then required to mount the paper. I then used a
thin piece of cardboard to try to pry between the paper and substrate.
It didn't budge. The paper tended to tear from the dry mount tissue
rather then seperate from the plexiglass. I will now mat and mount this
print, plexiglass attached.

Any other suggestions?
