    It looks pretty tough.  But I wouldn’t bet against you after seeing some of the great results you’ve posted.

    1 part isopropyl

    Only makes sense.
    Im guessing 70 years ago the kids were using Elmers glue, right? Its water soluble. It was easier to fix that than 90% of all the dings and dents.

    Before I saw the result I knew it would clean off.  I've seen it done and BTW well done!!!  I'll show you some highlights of the sub.

    Pretty wild!

    I would love to find an entire set of 1956 Topps in that condition. It just simply peeled away. Easier than any dings, dents, and crease I've dealt with.

    Let me explain what I have here.

    The Witt, SGC jordan and the Koufax were purchases.

    The others were my cesspool of a submittal.

    For example those Lebrons were all from the same box.  I had previously subbed 6 of them and 4 came back PSA10's so I thought these were a shoo in.

    NOPE!

    I got a few 10's on the modern.  Not one 10 on ANY of my 90's Jordan stuff. They never do.  It's a crock of shit.
    I'll send to SGC from now on unless I want vintage done.

    I imagine there has to be some more cards out there in similar condition.  Most people probably have no idea there’s a solution and they’ve given up on them.

    Agreed 100%.
    And the solution literally took less than 5 minutes.

    I will find more.
    At some point I will find 100-200 more.
