Hey so I was wondering if you could help me out with how to clean some old cards I have. I have been ripping old packs for a little and I have pulled a Topps 40 Ken Griffey Jr and a upper deck 1990 Ken Griffey Jr and I would like to get them graded but every video I see of cleaning cards is new cards with micro fiber cloths and I have watched some of your shorts looking at what you do and you are really good. I just don’t really know all the steps of cleaning and how to get them graded. Love you videos! Keep doin the great work!

Hi Kurt, I really appreciate this video and I have been considering grabbing a kit of your product for some time. This was a simple demonstration specific to a similar type of card I am looking to clean up. I have a 1957 Topps baseball card of a HOF player coming back from a grader and it, unsurprisingly, resulted in a grade of 4. This is due to a small splotch of what looks like glue on the back surface. I agree with the grader, however I also believe I can achieve a higher grade if this little trouble spot was gone (I would send it to a different grader). The centering is really nice and the edges and corners are pretty spiffy. It seems like this same exact process could be the way to go if I wish to proceed in addressing the evil splotch. Not sure if you have any thoughts, but I'd be super grateful if you have any tips or insight. I will be grabbing a kit from your website none the less 😎 Thanks and have a great holiday season!
