Does cleaning a bat impact the value? What about restoration?

Bat cleaning and restoration is an accepted practice. Although many collectors actually enjoy a bit of dirt and grime on the game used bats.

I can see repairing a game used bat that's badly damaged but I wouldn't fix most cracks OR remove any dirt or staining that was likely caused by handling by the team and game use.
