Love these videos so helpful. Never too long as I prefer not to skip ahead. Want to see the whole process.

[@TopComicsPressing]

Awesome! Thank you!

It's like Bob Ross of comics. Nice and soothing to watch.

[@TopComicsPressing]

I will have to add some happy little grades next time!

[@drprocess2989]

Just found your channel. Please forgive my ignorance, but do you offer pressing services? Wasn’t sure if this was informational only.

[@TopComicsPressing]

With the amount of surface dirt, staining and foxing, did you consider a HOP before the BLED? If you did, why did you choose not to do it?

[@TopComicsPressing]

I did. I find HOP has problems in books 1976 and newer due to thinner cover thickness

[@Thirdbornentertainment]

you said 14 total treatments, are you doing 2 hours bled-o 14 times per each cover?

[@TopComicsPressing]

Each treatment is 2h bled-o - 4 exterior three interior from and back cover

Are you having any issues with CGC about "whitening" your books?

[@TopComicsPressing]

Not yet. Last book I had flagged was a silver age book in December. Slid dozens past since.

[@tartuffethespry]

No grade reveal?

[@TopComicsPressing]

Won’t ever top a 5.5 so I did not send. Looks better but creases will kill technical grade.

Always amazing work brother. Keep it up!
