Dick towleIn response to emails I have received, water damage on a card is very dangerous to do, so I stopped this process. Many stains on the back of cards are caused by the gum juice that bleeds into the card. The process is to remove the " juice" without damage to the paper. The same process will work on wax also, but take much longer. Should the card grade higher yes, should the cards look better, should you tell somebody the wax was removed yes, they won't care because the mess is gone.
I am not trying to fool anybody, why, because there remains nothing on the card- nothing. The same with tape, the card will look a lot better without the tape on a card.
Painted T 205's this took over 5 years to research, but let the crooks beware, I can remove the paint on the card and leave the "real card showing". Many people cheated customers on a NM T 205- and many are in holders graded as Auth- very little value-
I hope I have answered some of the email question, thank you all again. DT
