Our Process
Below, you will find pictures of books that have undergone my diligent process—from being cleaned and pressed to those requiring stain or tan removal, as well as restoration removal. My techniques for achieving the best possible outcome for each book are second to none, setting me apart from other pressers in the market today.

Professional Cleaning of every book.
We use the utmost care when dry cleaning every book, ensuring that all dirt is removed to improve its appearance and make it look as though it was never there.
High Grade Pressing of all books.
We press our books flat using a process similar to a manufacturing press, flattening and smoothing the book to remove all possible indents and bends. This helps the book look as if it just came off the rack.
Restoration Removal of Color touch
Using careful precision, I am able to remove color touch from books with minimal damage to the book itself while maintaining a reasonable grade. This approach is preferable to the option used by CGC, which involves cutting out entire sections of the book.
Stain/Tan Removal on cover of books.
We use techniques that allow us to remove most stains, foxing, and tanning on books, giving them a much cleaner appearance. At the same time, we ensure we never push it too far, preventing your book from receiving a restoration purple label from grading.
CGC Submission
Once a book has been completed and meets my standards of satisfaction, I securely package it and ship it to CGC for grading and encapsulation. Once the book is shipped back to me, I carefully inspect the casing to ensure there are no cracks or errors before finally shipping the book back to the customer, completing their order.
