It’s just my personal opinion, but I don’t consider what was done to the card as an “alteration” especially since whatever was done is untraceable. To me, it’s no different than taking nylon hose and removing wax residue from the front of a card.

So in essence, all of this work was done to bring it from a 1 to a 2. Seems like a lot of unnecessary fiddling.

I don’t think the OP has the intentions of re-grading it. He just wanted a nice looking card and states in his original post, “I would probably just leave the card raw in my collection afterwards.”
