<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 559377, member: 4552"]The Xylene and/or Acetone should not leave a residue or film. You may have allowed that stuff to evaporate and whatever it disolved from the coin remained on the coin after the evaporation. Also, remember that when using such products to always use glass and clean glass. Those types of substances disolve materials in or on metals and plastics so you may have actually contaminated the solution depending on what you used. </p><p>There have been many posts here about the usage of those products.
