A clean and a polish are not the same job. Choose the level of attention your card needs. The pre-grading assessment is free with both.

  • Hand cleaning of the card surface

Free with every card

The pre-grading
assessment,
included.

Before you spend money on grading, know what you're holding. Every card gets a personal review of the four areas graders look at, with an estimated grading opinion. It costs nothing extra. It is part of the service.

FREE
01

Corners

A look at visible wear, whitening and the shape of each corner.

02

Edges

Attention to visible edge wear, chips and inconsistencies.

03

Centring

An assessment of the alignment and balance of the card's printed design.

04

Surface & paintwork

A review of visible marks, scratches and print or finish concerns.

This is Huncho's personal opinion, not professional certification, authentication or a guaranteed grade. Grading fees and submission are not included.

The intended service journey

Simple from
first look to return.

A clear route for your cards, without the guesswork. Booking and postage details will be confirmed before orders open.

01

Choose your service.

The Clean at £20 or The Polish at £25 per card. Sending instructions will be available when bookings open.

02

Cleaned, checked, understood.

Your chosen treatment, paired with a free personal look at corners, edges, centring and surface, including an estimated grading opinion.

03

Back to your collection.

Return postage is included in the per-card price. You decide whether to keep, display or pursue grading.

Informed collecting.

Cleaning and polishing cannot repair every defect or change factory centring. Any grading decision stays with the grading company, not us.

The details, up front

Good questions.
Straight answers.

Your collection matters. So does knowing exactly what this service is, and what it isn't.

What does the £20 Clean include?

A careful hand clean of one card's surface, a free personal pre-grading assessment of corners, edges, centring and surface/paintwork, plus return postage. You pay the postage to send the card to us. Return service level and any geographic limits will be confirmed before bookings open.

What's the difference between the Clean and the Polish?

The Clean (£20) is a careful hand clean of the card's surface. The Polish (£25) includes everything in the Clean and adds a dedicated hand-polish pass, work on scratches and creases, and time in a humidifier before the card spends a minimum of 24 hours in a card press. Both include the free pre-grading assessment and return postage.

Is the assessment an official grade?

No. It is Huncho's personal assessment and estimated grading opinion, included free with every card. It is not professional certification or authentication, and another grader may reach a different conclusion. Grading submission and grading fees are not included.

Can cleaning affect grading?

Every card is cleaned gently by hand, with the same care shown in the footage above. Grading companies set their own rules on cleaned cards, so we never promise acceptance or a particular grade - PSA and CGC both publish their current policies, and they are worth a read before you choose a treatment.

Can I book or send cards now?

Not yet. This is a design preview. Checkout and order intake are off. Treatment details, suitability, turnaround, return delivery cover and service terms must be confirmed before opening. Please do not send cards or payment.

Will every mark or defect come out?

No. Results depend on the card, its condition and the type of defect. Neither cleaning nor polishing guarantees scratch removal, restored corners, corrected centring or a particular grade. The treatment scope and risks will be explained before orders open.
