Does anybody have any tips for scanning a Topps Chrome Refractor Card. I am using the Epson V300 Scanner. It is so reflective it's hard to get a good image scan.

    You're out of luck with that scanner for the chrome shiny modern cards

    YUP ... I LOVE that scanner, but it's a no go with the modern shiny stuff!
    STAY HEALTHY!
