Cleaning Pokemon cards before grading is all about being gentle and effective. Start by using a soft, clean microfiber cloth to gently wipe away any surface dirt or fingerprints. If there are stubborn spots, you might use a little bit of distilled water on the cloth, but never apply liquid directly to the card. Make sure the card is completely dry before you send it off for grading. Also, avoid using any chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the card.
Honestly, less is more. I tried cleaning one of my rare cards with a slightly damp cloth and it got water damage. Just a soft, dry cloth or even better, leave it to the professionals.
