[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3524442, member: 112"]Simple answer, because if they told you how they do it, you wouldn't need to pay them to do it for you anymore. Doing what they do is not difficult, nor is any great secret, it does however require a certain level of knowledge. I've explained how to do it many times on this forum. And that's the biggest problem right there - because that IS exactly what people say. However, the people are NOT saying it correctly ! [B]Harsh cleaning[/B], or improper cleaning if one prefers that term over the other, (they both mean exactly the same thing), is what lowers the value of coins. But [B]cleaning[/B], that often actually increases the value of a coin. They are [B]cleaning[/B] the coins. But they are not [B]harshly cleaning[/B] them. That's the whole thing in a nutshell - two different terms that most people use incorrectly. And that is what causes the confusion and misinformation on the subject ;)[/QUOTE]
