<p>[QUOTE="NorthKorea, post: 2566138, member: 29643"]Greg, if you're a chemist, why did you make no mention of ambient temperature, air pressure (altitude) or humidity? Also, how often have you successfully submitted a coin after the 1% bath of trisodium hydrogendicarbonate? I would assume that if you're leaving the coin in the solution long enough to get past the outer most layer of verdigris, then you'd again be dealing with loss of patination. I dunno. I'm lazy, and I like Thad's product: I drop a little on the spot and tilt the coin until the bubble flows over all the devices and fields, turn the coin upside down on a very soft cloth and repeat. Flip over again, then let dry 24 hrs. Verdigris stopped. I guess if I wanted to remove the stuff, I could always poke at it, but my main goal is stopping the process, since I live in a hot, high humidity environment with high sulfur volumes in the air.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
