So, to sum it up,those notes would come back as details graded?

I don't believe so: if they were certified, they'd come back without the EPQ (like the majority of notes from that era).

I ended up gathering the courage to do a warm water soak and the two bills I've done it on so far seem to have come out even nicer.. I just put some filtered water on a plate and waited 30 minutes or so until all the fibers are soaked through.. I was too anxious to wait the suggested 2 hours, maybe that would have given even better results.

Well I'm glad you are getting the notes back into shape again. Look forward to see any improvement after the soaking.
