Default Grading Co. Experiment

SGC wins again, eh? They're the most consistent in my mind, and I know it's not a huge sample (or even anything larger than a small sample), but I had two T206 cards returned to me for evidence of "cleaning/soaking." Now the cards looked nice, but I wasn't sure how they knew it was cleaned or soaked, so I sent those cards back in with a lot of about 40 other T206 cards, and, wouldn't you know it, those two came back unslabbed as "cleaning/soaking" again. I'm not wasting my money on a third time. But I've sent water soaked cards (you know, to get glue off the backs) into SGC before with no problems. What are people cleaining/soaking cards with to get them brighter? And how does SGC know how to detect it? (I guess, I also want to know why they care?)
