<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 2536569, member: 56859&quot;]I use a variety of different soaks depending on what I think is on the bronze coin.&nbsp; Rubbing alcohol is effective in removing makeup (and I&#039;m convinced that is what some of my &quot;desert patina&quot; coins had on them).&nbsp; Mineral spirits work for colored wax.&nbsp; Acetone can dissolve various glues.&nbsp; If I use any of these, I also put the coin through a couple of soaks in distilled water prior to a thorough drying and a coat of VerdiCare.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
