ASMR Pokemon Card Repair #4: 1st Ed. Erika's Venusaur with TONS of Scratches!

Can I turn a PSA8 into a PSA 10? 👀 In today’s video, I crack open a vintage 1st Edition Erika's Venusaur from the the 2000 Gym Challenge set and attempt to polish, restore, and resubmit it to PSA for a PSA 10 grade.

Using a mix of professional card polishes, microfiber techniques, and surface restoration tools, I’ll test whether it’s really possible to improve the condition of a graded Pokémon card — or if it’s just a myth.
