<p>[QUOTE="BadThad, post: 2301852, member: 17261"]"Acetone color"? More likely due to using MS70. Acetone will NOT react with metal, plain and simple. I've used acetone on THOUSANDS of copper coins and it has never turned any of my coins. One single exception is a copper token from the 60's that was covered with a semi-sticky, transparent residue. When I used acetone on it a haze formed (probably dehydration of the non-polar-type residue). A soak in xylene removed the residue and the haze.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
