The secret is Nick to slow dry the paperwork
Spot on

I spilt a whole cup of tea in a carrier bag that contained quite a few invoices for parts last week when I wasn't paying attention.
Laying them out flat on the kitchen worktop, dabbing them gently with a bit of kitchen roll to soak up the worst, and then leaving them for a couple of hours had them as good as they were ever gonna get and more than readable still.
The other parts (MCB's, 100A switch, sockets, etc) in the bag however didn't fare as well and had to be thrown away.
