<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 8646809, member: 46237&quot;]I find haze on silver proofs to be one of the most consistently removable surface conditions. If it&#039;s got the right &quot;look&quot; you can remove it. I&#039;ve conserved many many proofs like the one below. Some looked bad enough that you couldn&#039;t tell they were proofs. After conservation they grade PF68-70 UCAM. But! It&#039;s about buying the right candidates for conservation in the first place.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s an example of one I conserved in a larger batch of hazy proofs a couple weeks ago. Not the best pics but I did take a few on my cell phone as I was explaining some conservation techniques to a couple people while I was doing it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Before:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1518023[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1518024[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>After (technically mid-process, but the end results were the same or a bit better):</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1518025[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1518026[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
