Adam - what is the definition? For instance, if a chunk of peanut butter fell off my sandwich onto a card, could I dab it off with a wet cloth without disclosing it upon re-sell? What about bits of dried tobacco on a t206 - can I clean those off? ...or does California regard both actions as basically the same?

I understand that we've been over it before, but I have the same view-point on "cleaning" as Leon - if it wasn't there to begin with, and you can remove it without damaging the card, you should be free to. But if that action is something that might keep a reputable grading company from slabbing it, you should disclose, for example, erasures.
