I don't know the answer but could you quit posting so often? We're going to have to impose the 15 post-a-day rule for you .

Actually, I will answer the question . If I were told one was cleaned with water and a Q-tip, and one had nothing done to it at all but was the same grade, I would pick the one that looked best regardless of washing or not. Now if you told me it was cleaned with solvent I wouldn't be so sure...

I try to limit my posting to twice every 5 years or so . I do read the forum on a more regular basis.
