Sticky Tarot cards

[truthbtold123]

I have tried putting cards in a zip loc bag filled with corn starch and cleaning with damp rag and it didn’t work . I also get these small bumps on the back of the card. What to do?

Are they laminated? I go through a deck of cards every year. As soon as they get a bit of a nick or the cards get sticky i know the shuffle and draw is compromised and i buy a new deck. The more you use a set of cards, the more likely this is. If they are laminated the cards easily split from the lamination with heat, hand oils, and treatment.

These days I get my cards made with top linen card and so far they are lasting really well.

What about putting them in a plastic bag with table salt, shaking really well and laying them out in the sun?

Benebell wen just reprinted her deck but was unhappy with the coating. She had suggestions and a method on how to make them just a bit more slippery…
