Advice For Soaking Thailand Scott 1671 (Stamp W/Hologram)

I got a nice quarter pound order of Thai kiloware in the mail today (Thanks ebay seller Greenmouse!) and amongst the interesting stamps is a hologram stamp (#1671). Scott states that "Soaking in water may affect the hologram). If this is the case, do I have any other alternatives to removing the stamp from paper or is it best just to cut around it ? This is the first hologram stamps I've ever come across and I'd rather not ruin it!

here`s an article (at the bottom about the `sweatbox`)...but I never tried (in fact I never saw a hologram stamp....)

Has anyone tried the "sweatbox" method of removing stamps? It sounds interesting.

Per the suggestion of another forum member, I ordered some "stamp lift" to remove some stuck paper from some otherwise mint stamps. I ordered it from subway but it's available in many places. Dunno if it might be appropriate for you situation. I have yet to try it myself but it should be here in a couple days.
