Pro Tips
If your GIF has a white halo from being cut out of a light background, the strong cleaning mode usually fixes it in one go
For GIFs with semi-transparent edges, use a lighter setting to avoid removing intentional transparency
This pairs well with the edge refiner — clean first, then refine for the best result
