<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 560656, member: 4552"]Acetone is has now become a really popular substance. It is found at almost any store that sells paints. If you go to Google and type in Acetone you will find 6,970,000 results for that substance. If you go to the search tab at the top of this page and type in Acetone, you may well find a real lot of posts on that subject. Many stories are, for some reason, ficticious and or just exagerated. Some are based on a one time attempt that failed for again, some unknown reason. </p><p>I've been using Acetone for many years and have found that most stories about that product are either guess work, copied from somewhere, one time failed attempts, not properly documented with facts, etc. For example leaving a coin in Acetone for several days or leaving a Copper coin in Acetone in the Sun will create a photo reation that will make the coin vanish or disentigrate. At one time I put several different coins in a glass jar of Acetone and left them there for days in the shade in my garage. Then moved the same glass into the sun. Not sure anymore of all the coins but one was a cent, nickel, two dimes and a quarter. One Dime was silver. All came out almost the same as when they went in except one Roosevelt Dime did appear a little cleaner.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
