WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CARD CLEANING?
It is considered best practice to clean your card before submitting it to a grader. Card grading companies (PSA, SGC, BGS..etc) will not clean your card when they receive it. They will grade the card as-is. So, if there are any imperctions, no matter how minor, it will form part of your overall grade. Cleaning your card will put your card in the best position to achieve the highest possible grade
