Sure, let's say you told PSA you cleaned it, then they probably would grade it "authentic altered". However, a large number of people on this sight talk about soaking/cleaning a wide variety of cards and then submitting them to be graded. This issue has been discussed over and over, some say it shouldn't happen, but others say adding water and using a Q-tip is Ok, because all you did was remove something that shouldn't be there. However, using chemicals that aren't water, is frowned upon. I don't get it, but that's what has been going on for years.
