Is there such a thing as "properly cleaned"? Or would that be synonymous with "conserved"?

If the TPG does it for a fee, it's conservation.
If someone else does it, it gets a details slab.

So, if I were to break a "conserved" coin out of its slab and resubmit it, do you suppose it might get called improperly cleaned?

No firm answer for that either way. A "conserved" coin might end up in a regular slab, the TPG doing the work having deemed the result "market acceptable." So one which graduated the conservation process into a Details slab probably has obvious evidence which would put it right back into a Details slab if you resubmit.
