<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 582857, member: 15199&quot;]You may remember that I was asked if I would do some experiments with BIOX (tm) solution cleaner/verdigris remover/conservation&nbsp; fluid after my previous experiments with Verdigone (tm).</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Thanks to the supplier Rasiel Suarez of Dirty Old Coins, I received a replacement order after my first one was damaged in the postal service. The directions were very brief and somewhat hazy, so I decided to work up a series of experiments which I will post as they go.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; First, however, I would like posters to look at the below 5 coins and determine if any are abnormal as far as color is concerned. I tried to carefully color balance the white paper they are on. Just mention any you would not consider for yourself due to possible cleaning or recoloring. the bottom 2 are circulated,,,,and one is steel <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/5coins.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; As a preliminary trial, I used an ancient I had around and used the BIOX on it. I had no dilution direction, so I added 5 drops to 5 ml of distilled water, about a 20% solution.&nbsp; Here is the original coin before 8 hrs of treatment.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>and here is the result.</p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/ancient-org.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq279/desertgem/ancient-post.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>At least I can see some results, but stopped it at this point until I have some experience to base experiments on. I may have overshot the time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
