[QUOTE="tulipone, post: 2268489, member: 71656"]All the difference 24hrs makes? Some. Obviously the loose mud has come off leaving a harder coating. Still it is pretty satisfying giving the coins a rub with a cotton bud and seeing the crud start to lift. I have now also started the third batch in warm water thinking that the worst that will happen is that some muck will lift off. All distilled water chucked and replaced with hand hot distilled water. Decided that before zapping with more ultra sonic or even starting with the electrolysis I am going to do a full review. There are far more hints today the there is something under the layers and a lot of the coins and I don't want to do harm to something just because it is a particular batch. Wonder if anything other than a water change tomorrow?[/QUOTE]
