<p>[QUOTE="Bret_T, post: 2113363, member: 74112"]I realize that I'm late to this discussion, but I do have expertise in the fragrance arena. I work for a fragrance and flavor manufacturing company. A typical fragrance contains thirty or so different materials. Many of these materials are not pure, but are mixtures of multiple materials. There are over 2000 fragrance materials in the fragrance palette. Many of these materials are oils. The fragrance is designed so that it will disperse completely throughout the material it is being used in, which in this particular case is acetone. An incredible amount of research goes in to determining how materials can be used so that we know they are <b>safe for their intended use</b>. I know of no company that has tested fragrances on coins. But from what I know about fragrances, I would not want them anywhere near a coin due to the typical oil content. It's just not a proper use of a fragrance. You might get away with it using a particular nail polish remover, but another containing a different fragrance might be a problem. Worse yet, the problem might take a long time to reveal itself. The bottom line is that you should only use pure acetone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
