Default Soaking question

Posted By: Frank Wakefield

Hey there...

You need to resoak. Kinda like after you soap up the water in the bath tub or shower you then need to rinse off. Distilled water is realistically a tiny bit better, but not worth the trip to the store to buy it.

So soak in again for an hour or so, then gently dribble tap water on the back side, (from close to the tap, not at a great distance so the card is pounded) and then gently blot with a paper towel before putting the card between paper and a stack of books. That should rinse away your stain.

While I've soaked many cards to remove flour paste and scrapbook paper, I've yet to trim a card. But these trim cops are just a bit too much. I wonder if they ever clip their nails, or do they want to stay "original" and "untrimmed"?

Chill, trim cops. You react as if someone stole your dependants and claimed them on their tax returns before you could file.
