I used acetone on one of the proofs. It cleaned the the milky haze off. Coins still a champagne tone but I can live with that I guess.

Ok I could not resist. I bought some MS70 and used it on a few old circulated Franklin halfs I got in a 90% lot... holy crap that stuff works.. So I tried it on one of the already cleaned but toned Kennedy proofs and MAN what a shine. Look brand new.
It did nothing but improve the look of the coin.

Ill do a before and after on a few in a few days... Several of the proofs have that haze/film that need to come off before they go in an album.

Here is a thread showing before and after on a roll-found JFK proof (clad) and MS70. Acetone did nothing to it.
