[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 4662038, member: 112"]It varies, sometimes greatly. Just like it is with toning, putty drying out is dependent on air flow - the more there is the faster it happens, the less there is the slower it happens. Yup. And only they decide how much they pay when they do decide to honor their guarantee. Again it depends. People who don't know what they're doing, they screw up badly by using way too much. People who do know what they are doing use specialized tools and only apply it where it's necessary. Those are the guys who fool the TPGs. Yes, it does. Putty is the primary reason NGC and PCGS began using the "sniffer". BUT - collectors have to understand that ONLY those coins submitted under that special grading tier are put in the "sniffer". All other coins never even get near the "sniffer".[/QUOTE]
