<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 2929864, member: 15199&quot;]Modern lacquers available in hardware chain stores or walmart type is usually epoxy&nbsp; based as&nbsp; compared to the old insect shell based lacquer that is only found in restorers or artist supplies. Acetone nor any common &#039;gentle&#039; solvent will remove the modern stuff and can make uglies. I have even tried DMSO on some newly lacquered coins and no go, just roughened the surface a little.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
