<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BadThad, post: 1346135, member: 17261&quot;]I rarely ever use gloves, it&#039;s too hard to manipulate the coin and it increases the risk of dropping. If it&#039;s a high grade/quality coin, I do give it a quick rinse with acetone after handling and prior to storage to be sure I don&#039;t leave anything on the surface.</p><p><br /></p><p>Removing dirt from devices is TRICKY and requires an experienced hand to avoid damage and the coin looking like it&#039;s been cleaned. In general, I recommend leaving it there, it adds character to the coin and the TPG&#039;s don&#039;t really mind it since it shows the coin&#039;s originality. If you decide to attack residue, ALWAYS do it under fluid, I recommend distilled water, so the surfaces are lubricated. This can help prevent scratching.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
