[QUOTE="OTB Records, post: 323843, member: 6162"] @ Finestcomics. I hear what you are saying but your reference is to paper. With carded SW figures you are dealing with printer's varnished card. I personally believe that this varnish will (and does) protect the integrity of the print and paper mix from liquids such as lighter fluid. Comparing the removal of stickers from untreated or lightly sealed paper such as that used on American comic books is a different thing from removing stickers from MOC SW figures. You can also look at it this way. What about the long term damage from the adhesive chemicals used in the stickers? These could (and do) over a period of time compromise the paper/card leading to more damage than if the sticker had been carefully removed. [/QUOTE]
