Was cleaning my older slabs with PlastX. While cleaning the back surface, some of the plastX liquid seeped into the “gap” between the front cover and backbase of the slab.
Any way to remedy this besides sending for reholder?
Get a piece of paper, I’m talking regular white printer paper. It’s just enough to fit in that gap. And you can scrape it right out.

Throw it in the oven at 400 °F for 45 minutes.

Be careful doing things like this 
A guy literally sanded one of his cards because of a joke like this. Someone’s posted the link to the thread before.

@ShinPorygon , ever have any luck with this or did you reslab or just deal with it. just had the same thing happen. Didn’t realize it could slip through but makes sense that it did.
They handled it surprisingly well.

I mean on the bright side in retrospect it was in poor condition anyhow. He said it had a shot at a 9 but if you look at all the pics it was littered with scratches all over and at the time shadowless turtles weren’t particulary expensive.
But it still hurts to see it happen to my boy blue!
I sold the slab
Jokes like this should end with a “Juz kidding” in case someone takes it for real
That’s one way to not worry about it anymore, thanks for getting back.

Using an a4 paper to insert between the gaps can remove most of the hardened plastx, but not all from my experience!
