  1. in my experience, dirt, smudges, etc in white areas is fairly easily removed. in inked areas much less so without diminishing the brightness of color. The problem with these two examples is the break in ink, it is irreparable without restoration. The fingerprint smudge on the white part of the hulk 181 could be removed but the integrity of ink on the ink part cant be fixed without restoration. Same for the GS x-men. They both still have great value even with those defects. If you decide to sell or to preserve the current grade Id just get them graded. Wouldnt hurt to have them pressed and other wise cleaned up.
