    Through some testing I figured out an excellent technique that takes about 15 minutes.

      I'm curious what technique worked best for you. I have used rubber cement thinner (which may not be on the current market in Canada; it's a brilliant way of removing most old price tags from cardboard blisters) but it fogged the bubbles edges. The fogging didn't show up when I placed the bubble against the new cardboard package, but it always bugged me that I couldn't figure out how to keep the bubble's edges fog-free.
      Kindly let me know your thoughts.

        99% Isopropyl alcohol. Works like a charm on bubbles for me. Dries quick and doesn't leave any streaking/hazing to the bubble. Just make sure you don't get any on the card while you are doing it.

        And because of all their tears,
        Their eyes can't hope to see
        The beauty that surrounds them
        Isn't it a pity".
