<p>[QUOTE=&quot;walterallen, post: 338058, member: 4068&quot;]Jhonn,</p><p><br /></p><p>Before you get started with the acetone you might consider this.</p><p><br /></p><p>I bought &quot;coin&quot; dip solvent that is sold for the expressive use to clean coins. I learned the hard way how to use this solvent/cleaner and if you follow these steps I guaranty you will be successful at removing the milky haze you&#039;ve described. I have cleaned many of my proof coins that were purchased with this problem and all of them are still in wonderful condition with no sign of having been dipped. Here is the technique: </p><p><br /></p><p>1.&nbsp; Use plastic coin clamp to hold the coin. These can be purchased online or at most coin shops.</p><p>2.&nbsp; Be at you kitchen sink with a clean soft cotton towel and the cold water running mildly.</p><p>3.&nbsp; Have the coin dip jar next to the sink. Open the jar.</p><p>4.&nbsp; Dip the coin and agitate the coin back and forth to the count of three. </p><p>5.&nbsp; Immediately place the coin under the cold running water and turn it over from side to side for about a minute.</p><p>6.&nbsp; It is important to rinse the coin well to remove all dip solvent.</p><p>7.&nbsp; Lay coin on dry towel and pat dry. Do not rub coin.</p><p>8.&nbsp; You should now notice that the haze has been removed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Very important points to know about this process. </p><p><br /></p><p>1.&nbsp; This solvent will ruin your coins if you leave it in the dip too long.</p><p>2.&nbsp; This solvent will ruin you coins if you do not remove the solvent after dipping.</p><p>3.&nbsp; Repeating the process over and over is the same as dipping too long or not rinsing well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does not work on copper coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>What ever you decide to do, good luck.</p><p><br /></p><p>Allen[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
