[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 8063380, member: 15199"]No, Verdigris is a chemical entity , not an disease like leprosy that spreads. For it to spread ( continue to corrode adjoining metal, it needs oxygen and water molecules from the environment) Acetone will hold moisture and carry any away as the acetone evaporates, so I would put it into a small glass container of acetone and put it away from open flames. Swirl occasionally and when the acetone get lower , dump it and do it once again . Then allow to air dry completely and put into a non PVC holder. This should hold it until you can get some chemical help. Some may disagree with my procedure, but it has worked well for me. From my earlier experiments.
