<p>[QUOTE="mrjason71, post: 2907132, member: 90347"]I just got a few bottles of Coin Care in the mail today. Chomping at the bit to get started conserving!!!

You would think it would just nuke anything on the surface of the coin. So...I'm looking to remove this dirt before/and or after dip. I've pre-soaked in DW, Acetone and tried a number of household things to handle this dirt. Have some coins soaking in xylene as we speak--maybe that will work. Fingers crossed.</p><p><br /></p><p>So i don't know enough about Coin Care to feel comfortable squirting it around just yet.
