[QUOTE="LindeDad, post: 1482936, member: 31518"]PVC contamination rates very with temperature and humidity it is exposed to higher both are the faster it is. Acetone has been discussed quite a few times but the quick and dirty is it is a highly flammable solvent that removes PVC with little effort. It will dissolve almost any plastic so use glass or metal containers and make sure their is plentifully ventilation and no spark sources in the area. Myself I wear Nitril gloves when using as there is a absorbency rick with continual expose. I buy both the gloves and Acetone in the paint dept. at Wall Mart. Edit to add that once the PVC is on the coin the damage will continue even when removed from the old flip and will contaminate the new safe flip if not removed before installation. It can get to be very expensive as I found out. [IMG]http://i492.photobucket.com/albums/rr287/LindeDad/Bodybag.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
