Hmm, doesn't sound like a good plan to me. Maybe it works much of the  
time, but if the solution dissolves some of the glue (if it is water  
based like hide or aliphatic), it is likely to wick some into the felt  
while it is sopping wet, and the wetness is slowed from drying by  
having a caul next to it. Seems like it would also slow the process a  
lot. How long would it take to dry?
