So I got my two cards today. The hinge came right off the back of the first card and I barely had to pull at it. It didn't stain at all but did leave a pull type mark that looks more like a light stress.

Of course the burns card is much tougher and although might come by just slowing pulling I think it will end up doing damage.

I want to avoid this, but I would like to use soaking as a last resort.

Will something like Bestine stain the card at all? Would I submerge the card or just put a bit on top.

How would you go about steaming it?

Any help would be great.

It seems with these cards I now have 4 T-206 and am slowing joining the ranks of the nuts collecting that set

Thanks
