<p>[QUOTE="Blake Davis, post: 26121455, member: 91820"]I have not seen good results with Jax. The British metal detecting organization has a terrific site on coin patination but the methods involve some extremely toxic chemicals. At one time I thought maybe I would try to patinate coins using the methods on the British site but my son, who knows alot about chemistry, took one look at one of the chemicals I bought for the work, told me that if I got any in my eyes I would go instantly blind, then put it in a box in a box in a box and wrote “ deadly chemical” on the outside with a skull and crossbones. </p><p><br /></p><p>That was it for me even though I bought protective equipment - I did not have a way to adequately vent the area I would be working in. So that ended the effort - no idea what to do with chemicals I bought -[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
