<p>[QUOTE="David Setree Rare Coins, post: 2548282, member: 74719"]I understand what you saying but I don't use pressure on the surface. MS70 is more like a soap but it DOES affect tone. It doesn't so much remove it as change it. Just soaking it will not do the trick. One has to VERY LIGHTLY smooth the liquid over the surface of the coin and even continue the action until whatever you are trying to remove is gone. It even does a fair job of removing glue residue or tape residue.</p><p><br /></p><p> If you have brilliant colors, they will be reduced to a dull monotone. It is meant mostly for BU/Proof coins but if used on AU or slider pieces, it brings out the wear and hairlines strongly. Say you have a dirty common Peace dollar that you believe is BU under all the dirt or ugly tone. MS70 will remove the dirt and some of the tone and you may be left with a bright, basically white BU coin. If there is any wear or hairlines at all, removing the dirt/tone and brightening the piece will show you any high point rubs or slider hairlines.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
