<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 4529934, member: 66"]A pure hydrocarbon probably won't, but unless it is a very low molecular weight hydrocarbon, it will probably leave an oily film behind on the coin, and isn't that why you are "cleaning" them in the first place? To remove contaminents from the surface of the coin. What good is a "cleaner" that leaves its own contaminents behind.</p><p><br /></p><p>Frankly most contaminents you are going to want to be removing from you coins (unless you are trying to remove toning/tarnish) can be removed with either distilled water or acetone, both of which are pretty safe, harmless to the coins, and probably cheaper than these cleaners.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
