<p>[QUOTE="Kentucky, post: 3621412, member: 33176"]The damage done is not necessarily with the wiping material or even with the wiping itself, but with scrubbing around any grit that might be on the coin. You wash your car and wipe it dry, but you would never wipe on a grimy car...why...the grit will scratch the bejeebers out of it. Same with coins. Use only pure solvents, distilled water, acetone or xylene and pat or blot dry...then there are the dips...another story.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
