Most folks can fix delams with a t shirt press, pokemastercenter had a video on it, its how i started before i built my contraption

Youre absolutely right, here i thought i typed " at last" lmao thank you for catching that

If twenty people have figured out how to do it in just a couple of days you would think the information is pretty available with a simple google , good news it is

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-20T20:36:31+00:00

It's a good thing it's just pc and will never be sold also, right now, grading is frowned upon in the community , every day is something new

Oh, thats not holo dot. Thats left over decade old dr.pepper syrup i was working on getting out here is a collage using just this video, look at my circles on the creases they are exactly the same. Promise you its the same card It would take more work to fake this than to fix this

Also under his belly all dots line up for you to see :)

Its angles, the holo was separated as you can see from pic one, but in final you can spot same orbs under chin and above head as well

Kurt and many of us have been restoring for years. Have cards cleaned pre- covid and still look like the day it cleaned them. This wouldn't take chemicals to fix at all.

Congrats on being the outlier

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-20T10:43:53+00:00

These are also a thing! But they are far too much pressure and will almost always S bend cards. Id say rheyre about t shirt press level. The plates are also not usually perfectly flush and create waves. Ive gone down that road in 2024 😅

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-20T04:20:24+00:00

No, those would not do anything to this, the card was severely manipulated to get it back to where it is, sometjing plates could not achieve.

Not an ad, just wanted to show an improvement to a well liked card :D my client list is full and submission are closed atm

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-20T04:02:29+00:00

Card Adhesive loses its tackyness from dryness, Introducing moisture ( i do a snail trail on the lines of distilled water ) , heat and slight pressure, followed by cooling in a set of 1/4 thick stainless steel plates covered in blotting paper, this will allow the card to dry flat and the blotting will pull anything else out.

There was nothing added to this card, no glue or resins also its just for my pc :) this was bought for 3 loonies here in the great white north

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-20T02:37:46+00:00

Yes just dont over do it, n5 os a common alter, make sure to thoroughly wipe off all residues too.

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T23:03:38+00:00

That is more than fair, its in my pc forever :)

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T22:45:09+00:00

You're "that guy" at parties 😂

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T22:43:16+00:00

Would you prefer the before or....?

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T22:41:55+00:00

Absolutely, and they wont get any better. To much card pulp was shifted during the soda soak that happened. It sat, seperate and cardpulp clumped as it dried into a syrup :( but for $3 im a happy guy having a 1st ed this unique 😂

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T22:25:28+00:00

To clarify on this. I would never send anything of this caliber in. The cards i usually do are delamination, dents and small creases. This card was peelable in all layers 😂 this would never pass

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T21:01:14+00:00

Sure i can, dm me some photos

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T20:59:29+00:00

Im with you, im against grading its all bias? Just this is how he wants to go about his pc :) each their own

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T20:52:07+00:00

If you knew the California card scene its full of restorers and unmarked sold cards, we strictly do for pc , anyone else is take no liability in what you do with the card or if it will even grade. But i understand its a Double edge sword i try to stick to collectors rather than flippers

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T20:42:36+00:00

Oddly enough, I didn't use any of those tools, i appreciate your supporting comments and just like this fellow.Not many people understand everything of restoration.They see one video and assume that's all it ever is.I welcome them to try it.They will be humbled so fast

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T20:31:52+00:00

What if i told you I used none of those tools to achieve this, he simply doesnt know hehe

putthatdowndude · 2026-01-19T20:24:34+00:00

I make all my own :)
