<p>[QUOTE=&quot;nightowl, post: 742528, member: 18614&quot;]One of the features of simichrome polish (which I use on banjos...not coins) is that it leaves a film of silicone on the surface and in the pores of the metal to inhibit tarnishing. You&#039;ll want to strip this silicone by soaking it in acetone before doing anything else. The &quot;dip&quot; will bead up like rain on a windshield treated with Rainex if you don&#039;t remove the silicone first.</p><p><br /></p><p>After the silicone is removed...I&#039;ve heard that chlorine bleach will change the color of a coin. I&#039;ve no experience with that...but the coin&#039;s already ruined, so there&#039;s nothing to lose. </p><p><br /></p><p>Nightowl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
