| From my FAQ page. What is included in the price of the pressing? For the regular tiers of service the following is included along with the pressing. * Dry cleaning * Spot and tacking iron work * Full book press * Quick restoration check. I do not claim to be an expert but I do catch most of what comes across my desk * If the book needs to be pressed again it will be done at no additional cost |

Todd McFarlane uses a certain pen (white, light blue, purple) that tends to sit on top of the paper instead of being absorbed into it like a sharpie or ink pen would. Books signed with those paint pens are problematic but can be done. I believe there is a thread that shows a few examples of the issues with these paint pens. |

| I've wondered if some of the signature inks will cause problems for the books in the future. | ||

| I know this entry is late to the party, but for those that come to this thread late, I just used Mr. Comic Press, and he did a fantastic job on my books. Non-color break spine stress just vanished a small fold on one of the back covers is gone. You can reach him at: comicpressing@gmail.com Really easy to work with and great communication and turn around times. |
