<p>[QUOTE=&quot;beachcombermike, post: 630115, member: 19211&quot;]I would not use it at all - as a matter of fact I would not use most of what is mentioned or used on this board. All that stands out on the link is &quot;down to bare metal&quot; - ie strips the luster right off a coin. </p><p>.....................................................................................................</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp; <span style="color: blue">pardon my &quot;stupidity&quot; but has anyone ever asked themselves why &quot;luster&quot; or &quot;patina&quot; is the only way to collect coins and who started it off, surely it&#039;s a matter of personal preference whether you collect coins that have been cleaned so that you can see them clearly and enjoy them.&nbsp; i realise that as things stand no cleaning is the way to go and that is based on personal preference but why can&#039;t we start a &quot;clean coin&quot; collection which is visualy pleasing to the eye.&nbsp; just a thought.&nbsp; mike. :secret:</span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
