Yes it is. I have done several of them recently and they all turned out nicely. As with soaking any card you must keep and eye on them and make sure you don't soak to long or you run the risk of taking some of the back away as well. To also echo what Frank said you must change water frequently. I soak one card at a time and change water for every card regardless of whats on it. Why?? You don't want any dirt or maybe even glue or oil residues transferring from one to another. Maybe excessive but can't be to careful.

Pup and Frank,
Thanks to both of you for your responses. I will try to changing the water more often, I only changed once with the card that got "dirty". I also had three in there at once, I will do one at a time. Glad I am practicing with the beaters. I will give it a shot with the Gold Borders too, thanks again.

After reading this thread, I decided to try this. I took an E95 Chance that was dirty (especially along the left border) and was very pleased with the results. I just got it back from SGC yesterday. It didn't grade any higher (and I could really care less), but it gave it a lot more eye appeal.

Brockelman & Luckey card gets soaked
This card was obtained 2009 B&L Auction. Had this George Washington paper afixed to the back. Decided to take a chance and soak it and see what happened.
Here is the result. Does have small amt paper loss right lower corner(present before George was pasted on as nothing on the Washington I took off). Used plain tap water, warm. Took only about 3 minutes for paper to come off.
