wd1040 Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 12/08/2008 5:21 pm Thank you all for your comments! I see that it is really hard to remove milk spots, but since I bought these at near spot, I will try with acetone first, and then MS70. Will post results later... hope this works!

wd1040 Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 12/10/2008 10:39 am Well, acetone didn't work. I even tried to soak it in Formula 409, but that seemed to sort of work. At least it didn't damage the color of the coin. I think what has worked the most as of now is just leaving the tube open in my room. Some of the minor ones are gone, but I will try some more things before I post pics. Edited by wd1040 12/10/2008 10:40 am Report this Post to the Staff

It's like what you use to clean the oil-smoke-sucking machine (since you live in Singapore, you should know this machine!) Report this Post to the Staff

wd1040 Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 12/10/2008 9:45 pm Well, it blackened the pie dish I had it in, but as for the coin... not much... It's still shiny, and the spots are still there. I'm... going.... to .... just.... leave... them.... open and wait for silver to go back to ~$12, 13 so I can sell them... I know what not to buy again: silver maples... (for hairline-ability and possible milk spots). If I need silver bullion again, I'm going to buy American. Report this Post to the Staff
