<p>[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 3150970, member: 46237"]Acetone is used to dry things quickly. The coin will already be dry and you shouldn't have need to pat the surfaces dry. You do want to use an acetone rinse after the soak, to make sure no contaminants that were in the acetone are left on the coin. You can also use another clean container of acetone to swish the coin around in. If you add water after an acetone soak all you're doing is making the coin wet which will dry very slowly.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
