I'm digging into this, just received from Amazon your CPR book. Now, what is killing me is that you passed the eraser over red and yellow, specially in a very compromised book like that. When is a do and when is a don't?
Red and Yellow are very easily rubbed off with erasers so you have to be extra careful, and with very very light pressure. Experience and time will guide you with this method and it becomes increasingly easier to dry clean. Dry cleaning is very difficult on fragile comic books.
@@kaptainmyke I just won an auction at eBay, for $10 total... more than 20 books of : Archie, Claw, Hulk, Eternals, Justice League of America, Captain America, Detective Comics Batman, etc. This will cut learning time, fear to mess up and open up to more experiment opportunities. My goal is to work from home doing this. Theres a great demand for comics, in less than 15 minutes from me, there are about four comics stores. Thanks for the ideas, the more the better!
Why do you put the steel plate on top? Also, is it better on this type book, not to use bottom steel plate to press top & bottom at same time? Thank You, Great video!!
I'm new to pressing and found your website really helpful. I have pressed a few books with relative success. On one I may have pressed too hard and left staple indents on a few pages, can these be pressed out? It has the marvel digital code so there is a lot of sandwich material. Aldo I have been using teflon as aposed to srp should I increase the heat a little based on this? Thanks

@@kaptainmyke I only wish I can buy some none valuable 50-60 year old comic or small publication to practice ..
@@JoeyRam. I would practice on old romance, western, Archie, and Charleston comics for the practice and they aren’t worth as much 👌
@@kaptainmyke Perfect!
