Fun With Soaking...

[dio]

Now try to send to PSA to see if they able to catch it.
It's call preservation right? Haha

Ha...I was thinking about turning in my resume' to PWCC...




For the record, I currently don't own a PSA graded card (a few SGC's...) but do have over a hundred tags in a jar...

I picked up a few 52 Topps a few months ago, including a Willie Mays with a hideous crease. After a soak, the crease is practically gone. It is a card I will always keep, and it would have been heartbreaking to ruin it, but wow, I sure didn't expect such a dramatic improvement.

Do you have before and after photos?

I'd like to see as well...



Tere1071....Sorry, I have no idea if a 53 Bowman would work...haven't tried too many. I only showed the success pictures, most improved the card but didn't have the same results (most creases still leave a flush line, might be my lack of skills too). I don't have the nerve to put anything in water I can't throw away to be honest, just having some fun.

Other than the wrinkle it's a nice card and I wouldn't want to damage it. I am attempting to upgrade, but most of the Spahns lack the centering this has.

So, I have a nice Spahn (BVG 3) that has a surface crease/wrinkle that's about 2 inches long. How do 53 Bowman's hold up under soaking?
