I have one like that and I gave it a bath in acetone -- just to see what would happen.

Parts of it got really shiny but that's about all. The green stuff didn't go away completely and it developed a big milky spot.

I was just curious about what could be done to zincolns. I think that once they get a puncture of any sort, they disintegrate.
Rest in Peace

Once they start to rot they don't last long.I am going to spend it before it turns to dust (i think I here it rotting away as I type ). In a roll it goes.
