Hello , The only time I used water (and a very little wall paper remover) on grand damper felts, the water goes in the wood and leave ugly marks on the sides (and I did not even install them in Tepperware or a recipe, only soaked the felt, put the heads back on a tray and wait 30 min). So I stick with the chiseling method, then sand the remaining glue flat, it is fast and clean, just I take care to sand level.
