"As far as I'm concerned: efforts to erase will always leave evidence behind, even if not visible to the naked eye, and therefore must needs be mentioned. Leave well enough alone." G. S. Professional paper conservator. (Smithsonian)
To me, this is good advice, "leave well enough alone."
Whether attemping to erase a pencil mark, or soaking a card to enhance it's appearance it is altering. Dave.
