- Good - minor damage, worn, faded, tarnished

QUESTION: How could Restoration be different than using the Smog Vacuum from Eco Lifestyle? IDEA: Restoration Floor Tarp: Less tech, more hands on. Slots shabby item. Animations: paint brush, feather duster, hammer, analyze. Work through the levels of condition until Mint. NOTE: Smog Vacuum could cross-pack-play with this pack.
