Default Removals

Is it best practice for an authenticators to put every item under a blacklight? I guess it would make sense if there were evidence of tracing, ink added or even very light autos... But on the other hand, I could see this slowing down a process...

Kind of ot: but is there a best practice, or statement if work that tpa's typically try to follow?


Going along with Rhys' theory, my gut says this one has had ink removed for aesthetic purposes...but who knows until you touch it?

When they find traced signatures or signs of removal on a signed baseball that is always stated in the COA.
Anybody know Clean Sweep well enough to ask for a copy of the COA?
