<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1359410, member: 112"]I think it would take more than just a dip in acetone, in fact I wouldn't even use acetone to remove Blue Ribbon. I'd use xylene because it will do a better job with oils. And yes, IF you get all of the Blue Ribbon off of the coin then yes they will slab it.</p><p><br /></p><p>But it is important to note and understand that when someone talks about dipping a coin they are not talking about dipping the coin in acetone, distilled water, or xylene. They are talking about dipping the coin in a commercial coin dip - a mix of chemicals that contain an acid. All coin dips contain an acid. That is why Don Willis worded his comments the way he did.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
