<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3602013, member: 112&quot;]Sometimes you can see it and sometimes ya can&#039;t - it all depends on the signs and the toning. Same thing I said above - </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>As Conder said above, yes it is. Toning is the result of corrosion, the metal itself being changed into an entirely different substance. It is that different substance that is added. And that substance has a great many different degrees of thickness, and colors. And it&#039;s a whole lot like paint, in one regard anyway. The thicker it gets the more it hides. Put a thin, single coat of paint on something - you&#039;ll still be able to see what&#039;s underneath it. Put a nice thick 2 coats on - everything underneath is hidden. </p><p><br /></p><p>Toning works the same way. Whatever there was underneath is still there, you just can&#039;t see it as easily, if at all. Just that simple. That&#039;s why intentional toning is the oldest trick in the book, it&#039;s pretty easy to do and it works, always has. And as you can see with the coin in this thread - it still works ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
