<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 3937849, member: 84179&quot;]Chemistry and metallurgy analysis has shown that the removal of tarnish/toning removes the surface layer of the metal. Luster is caused light bouncing of the microscopic flow lines formed during striking.&nbsp; Removing the surface metal removes these flow lines, which results in a dull, lifeless surface.</p><p><br /></p><p>So what I hear you saying is that you&#039;ve managed to refute the science and experimentation done over the last few decades.&nbsp; Well done.&nbsp; I can&#039;t wait to read about it in a future issue of the Journal of the Electrochemical Society or Journal of the American Society of Metallurgists.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m done with this nonsense. Best of luck with your future collecting endeavours.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
