Actually, it seldom destroys the sketch as long as you're careful, and dont get the sketch saturated. Once it's off I just take a hair dryer set on low heat and dry the paper back out. Otherwise it gets wrinkles when it dries. >_<

I rarely get a cel with a stuck sketch but 4 times I successfully removed it using the freezer trick a fellow collector taught.

Put it in for a few minutes and slowly try to separate them. If sketch isn't stuck to bad they come apart with minimal to no paint damage.

Only do this if really desparate though. While I was sucessful 4 times I really screwed up a cel once and was heartbroken :l

Yea, the freezer trick works most of the time.
