I think it's a gray area if as a professional restorer you're not actively participating in any fraud, but you have a pretty good idea of why certain clients are using your services. Perhaps not gray legally, but ethically? I actually had a very productive conversation once with a woman who did this work (she had impeccable credentials in the museum world as I recall) and even though it was pointed out to her that certain cards she had "improved" had been graded by PSA (I forget the details now), she was insistent her responsibility ended when the customer paid the bill.
