Comic Book Pressing Info
Comic Book Pressing removes bends, creases and other imperfections. It improves the overall appearance and value of the book. It will not remove color breaks and does not fix all damage.
Books with inserts will receive a cover pressing only, the interior pages will not be pressed due to the fact that the insert will cause impressions. We are able to work on Hologram and Holo-foil books as well as books with embossing but they also will receive a modified pressing.
Dry Cleaning is used to remove most of the surface dirt on the front and back cover. It can remove pencil and some ink (but not all). It is not suitable for all books and does not remove all markings. It does not remove stains, soiling, ink or water damage.
Whitening is a chemical free non restorative way to remove or reduce tanning and age related browning. It does not harm the ink colors. It is generally done on just the cover, contact us for pricing on interior pages as well.
Spine Roll Fix is a fix for books with a mis-aligned spine. It is only for books that are in good condition, as it can cause damage to brittle books. (Spine Roll is not when the book has a curl to it, that is fixed by normal pressing)
We do not work on any books with nudity or mature content. We reserve the right to refuse to work on a book for any reason.
