Improving Surfaces for Grading? How do you do it?

[oggie]

I've heard that it is possible to remove blemishes in Topps Chrome and Bowman Chrome products, etc. Can it truly be done in an easy fashion? Just curious as I've never heard anything definitive on this...

I'm talking about more than just wiping with a microfiber cloth...

Goo-Gone works really well.

Seriously?

If you're referring to light scratches then No, there isn't really any way of getting rid of them. But, I always clean my cards with a Microfiber Cloth (Eyeglass Cloth). SOMETIMES what looks like a scratch is actually something else and can be rubbed out with a cloth.

Toothpaste.

Toothpaste.

I've heard this as well. But does it TRULY work. I've tried it before and I didn't see any results...

I use a scratch resistant eyeglass cloth to remove all fingerprints or other blemishes. I'm not sure if you can get rid of scratches but if you wipe it down enough it'll make it look less obvious

toothpaste is an abrasive substance

Just wipe as best you can with microfiber. If you want to try other abrasive remedies be sure to practice on a red 2009 Trout BC auto or even gold if handy:)!
