The little Japanese wrestling cards have a semi gloss finish and it was totally fine in the store but I think what happened was the heat caused it to get wet again and stick the card saver. Not sure if melt is the perfect word but go from dry to wet. I was literally drenched in sweat within a minute of getting in the car. My face was dripping like I just got out of the pool. HOT!!!

The only saving grace was I had the remnants of a sugar free Red Bull and Tito's and a towel and thankfully was able to take the smeared Ichiban off. The Hogan side for whatever reason wasn't as bad and the item still presents fairly well.

Thankfully the back of the figure is just old cardboard and so the large sharpie was no issue and did just fine.
