Questions, answered with care.

A few clear answers before you choose a restoration package.

01 / GRADING

Can you fix every defect?

Not always. Some damage can be reduced or refined, while deep creases, material loss, and severe wear may remain visible. We’ll assess your card honestly before any work begins.

02 / TIMING

How long does restoration take?

Typical work is reviewed and scheduled after your photo assessment.

03 / SAFETY

Is my card safe with Mint Lab?

Every card is handled individually, documented, and returned in protective packaging.
