I agree it would need to be detailed...and one should probably warn the person to practice on a coin that they can stand to lose. I dont think its valid to withhold info on the grounds of protecting coins...the coins belong to that person who owns them, they are more likely to harm them trying something without help than if they are given the info along with a warning to test it out first and dont go right into cleaning a rare and valuable coin until you are more confident. IMO you are doing more harm than good NOT giving them the correct info. You are forcing them to wade through unreliable scattered info and trial and error.
I simply will not pay someone to conserve a coin so sharing the info on how to do it correctly is being a much bigger help than 95% of the topics discussed on most forums.
