I would think -- and this has been reinforced by people much more knowledgeable than myself -- bleach or some sort of caustic agent.

Maybe there are newer and better methods, but I am just really skeptical that water alone could bring about that change. I mean on the SGC 50 detailed scan I posted, look at the contrast between the protected areas on the right side and the rest of the card.
