<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 75999, member: 669&quot;]Pure acetone - the kind you get at a paint or hardware store or a home center, and <i>absolutely not</i> your significant other&#039;s acetone-based nail polish remover, is the &quot;solution&quot;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> you are looking for.</p><p><br /></p><p>A quick rinse, using a glass or ceramic bowl in a well-ventilated area, followed by a rinse in deionized water and air drying, should remove the tape residue.&nbsp; Acetone does not affect luster or tarnish (what some call &quot;toning&quot;), which is a good thing; but if your coin has been discolored by lengthy exposure to the tape, neither acetone, nor anything else appropriate for use on coins, will do the job.</p><p><br /></p><p>For more information, and several excellent prior threads, use the forum search function and look for postings about &quot;acetone&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
