CGC Pressing Experiment: Results and Reveal

Still Only 35c Issue 16 - Should you use CGC Comics Pressing Service? I cracked out two silver age keys to find out. Did I get a grade bump or bust?
For this one, I wanted to experiment with CGC Pressing and recently cracked out two Silver Age Keys, Incredible Hulk Issue 2 and Tales of Suspense Issue 52, both UK Price Variants for resubmission to CGC with their Comic Book Pressing service in the hope of getting a grade bump. Was I successful?

    I am big advocate of cleaning and pressing before grading. I bought a full Deadpool circle chase series for Vf+ price and my cleaner and pressing guy managed to get 9.8s out of all four books! Even #1 that is an embossed cover.

    Thanks for the support and comment. I agree, it's amazing what a good cleaning and pressing can do for comic books and like yourself I pretty much make sure every book submitted has one. I'm on the hunt for a good 3rd party presser and experimenting on pressing my own books.

    It was all me in the hotel room whilst at ECCC; as CGC weren't there had to find Post Office to send them the next day.
