<p>[QUOTE="LostDutchman, post: 963815, member: 16994"]A lot of people think that the green stuff just magically comes off and the coin under it isn't harmed. Green is BAD... it's active corrosion and it's bad news for your coins. If a coin is green odds are that whatever you do to it... it's never going to look like it did before the corrosion set in. Thad's product does a good job in stopping the corrosion and removing light and sometimes even moderate verdigris but most of the time the damage is already done under the verdigris and their isn't a cure for it. There is a point at which the coin is "south of cheese" and it can't be brought back.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
