I've soaked TONS of cards.........but primarily to remove foreign objects. I've never seen a noticeable change in the coloring or dirtiness (is that a word?) of the card. I guess if you use something other than water or distilled water, you could see a difference and have some dirt removed buy my primary success has been in removing cards from albums. If they're nice when they went in, they'll usually come out nice. If they were crappy or dirty, they generally look like that after they come off the page. I've heard of people soaking in the Bestine solution but I've never tried that.............
