Default Backing off of Printed Treasures--How to ? ? ?

I have photos printed on to Printed Treasures fabric and am having a hard time getting the backing off in one piece without little bits sticking to the fabric. I've used Printed Treasures before & have not had this kind of a problem. It is very annoying.

The backing tears leaving bits & pieces on the fabric. The only way I can get them off is by either trying to scrape with a fingermail or rub with a finger. Both are very time-consuming & hard on my arthritic hands. I've been afraid to heat with an iron or wet the fabric. Has anyone used either method? If so, how did it work? Although I wash my quilts when they're completed, I'm concerned that may leave little lumps (or something) between the layers of fabric.

Anyone have any thoughts on how to make this easier?
