Got a grail book in today. Amazingly enough the slab mostly survived being shipped in an envelope all the way from Australia.

Congrats! Can’t imagine the anxiety you felt when it arrived before you opened it and found everything ok. The sigh of relief must’ve been deafening

I would have it pressed and removed.

Yeah I'm torn, since it says Very Small amount of color touch, but who knows how big or small that is.  I got it for a good price since it was restored, compared to blue in the same grade.  Would the grading notes be specific on where the color touch is, or any other details?

If I keep it as is, its still a beauty book and I'm OK with that.

Now that is cool!  Some of those Viz books are really tough. I'm more of a Lum guy myself (hence the tattoo) but I love all of Rumiko Takahashi's stuff. I have all of the Lum/Urusei Yatsura stuff, but can't recall ever running across a Ranma 1!

Don't. I can spot restoration removal easier than restoration. Especially if it was C-1 removed. They have to scrape the paper, taking some of that with the color.
