My cards will never be in better shape then they are now, you can't undo damage however minor it might be. The best way for me preserve them and to prevent future damage is to leave them slabbed. Personally I know how bad I'd feel if I ever damaged a card when cracking it out of a case or mishandling it. Rather than a question of preserving value, to me it's more of a question of preserving the "treasure".
