I'm not sure that would be cost-effective. An acetone soak really isn't difficult or dangerous at all (as long as you keep fire away), and a quart...
I would've been all over those, too! Outstanding score!
The only reverse photo I see has so much glare in that region that I wouldn't expect to see it. Am I missing a second photo?
