<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1092524, member: 26302&quot;]You are right Doug that another dip would do it, but still may require a little scrub with cotton. I was just suggesting something to try and not dip the coin again. Every dip adds up. I did this in the past if I missed any dip residue, but I admit the residue would only be a few days old, I don&#039;t know how old his may be. I do find distilled water very good at removing quite a few chemicals, only distilled, though, never from the tap. Plus, since its pure water I have never seen any harm done as long as your dry right away. Water in the summertime coming off your AC unit should be the same as distilled, but I would splurge for the $2 a gallon just to be safe.</p><p><br /></p><p>Great point though Doug, dipping it again if it is stubborn should remove it. Practice dipping on some loose change and practice a bit before trying it. Also, ALWAYS have distilled water at hand to rinse a coin off after a dip, I always have a fresh container of water right next to the dipping solution, and change the water after each coin. Do not be stingy on the size of the water container either, you are trying to stop a reaction, and the more water you have the better it will dilute it away. I would use half a gallon per coin to be safe and to ensure neutralization. Swish it around thoroughly, rinse off once more to be sure, then dry immediately.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
