Kevin Saucier"Are some card stocks more appropriate or less appropriate for soaking? For example, an N162 is on very different stock than a 1972 Topps card. Do you have a list of which stocks are easily damaged by soaking?"
Awesome question! I've probably soaked every card from every year, from thick stock to thin paper and stamps. Soaking is not recommended for photo-type cards, such as postcards, OJ's, Bell Brand's, Kelloggs etc...they crack and spiderweb.
For some reason that I have yet to figure out, the card stock used on the 48-49 Bowman and Leaf cards will sometimes create their own stains and spots...from out of nowhere.
