[QUOTE="Bonedigger, post: 139063, member: 4367"]Your doing nothing wrong. Do it a little bit at a time. Remember, only the metal will foam and fiz up and that's how the coin cleans itself, a small layer of metal is destroyed and with this the crud is taken off too, understand? What you have is some of the residual oil in the crust around the coin blocking the electrical current from the metal of the coin to the solution. You MUST remember not to over-do it as you can never correct the pitting which will happen if you OVER electrolosis the coin. Good Luck B[/QUOTE]
