About soaking cards

Posted By: Jeff Mohler

The first time I soaked a card, I used tap water. I got the "halo" effect too. On Keith O'Leary's advice, I soaked it again in distilled water. The halo effect went away after the card was resoaked. Sad to say that the card (an E210) still graded an SGC 10. Way too many wrinkles that didn't come out with the soaking!!

I would try soaking the Zeenut again in distilled water and see what happens.
