<p>[QUOTE="nesvt, post: 45529, member: 1749"]I've had luck with rose thorns. They have a natural point and break apart if you apply too much pressure. They can scratch (like anything else). I'd avoid anything metal. WD-40 will clean it up real good, but I think the solvents would take away that nice toning. I don't think nail polish remover is pure acetone. It has lots of additives and will leave residue that won't rinse off in water. You might be able to soften it up with a little heat. Not melt-the-coin heat, just a little sunlight for a few minutes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
