Believe it or not, it isn't all THAT difficult. It just takes a lot of time and patience. Don't bother with solvents or solutions. Just take a bucket of water and a sponge and go over glue/paper backing. Let the water soak in for several minutes, then wet the sponge and go over it again. Repeat this for about 15 or 20 minutes. Eventually the glue and paper will soften and you can peel/sponge it off.
