<p>[QUOTE="Seattlite86, post: 3260023, member: 59737"]I have a few buffalo nickels soaking in pure acetone before I put them in 2x2s. That’s about 12 hours facing up, now 12 hours facing down. They’ll go into distilled water next. Should I gently use a q-tip on the nicer ones with little gunk on them, or just leave on whatever the acetone doesn’t eat off? Some of them felt a touch slimy when I was flipping them over (into a new bath of acetone). I’ll post final photos when I pull them out for good. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]857396[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]857397[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
