............ old treadle veneer without damaging the finish.
I have a nice later model treadle sitting here to get ready to deliver to my SIL. There are some pieces of masking tape on the under side of the lid. What is the best way to remove it without damaging the finish?

No, I haven't tried anything yet. We just got the machine home last night and in the house a little bit ago.
I know of many things that will take it off, but I'm paranoid about damaging the original finish. It's still in really nice shape.

i have some plastic "razor blades" and shards of plexi I use sometimes, but they will scratch thru old clear finishes. I use ggauze soaked w WD-40 held on w plastic wrap and lwt it soak for a long time.
