ilikeikes Pillar of the Community United States 1205 Posts	Posted 01/16/2015 6:05 pm I need your opinions on what's best to give coins a quick dip prior to submission..I only ask, as I pretty much destroyed the golden color of a SAC $1, using EZ-Zest. So..what's best for Golden Dollars....Zinc Cents..if you prefer something other than EZ-Zest for 5c, 10c, 25c, and 50c, and silver and Proof Silver and Clad, feel free to chime in....again, this is mainly to remove wash spots, and irregular toning.

Chute72 Pillar of the Community United States 1314 Posts	Posted 01/16/2015 11:28 pm I use lots of E-Z-Est. It is great for brass carburetor parts and brass knife bolsters. Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 01/17/2015 06:24 am Acetone is not likely to do anything on wash spots, and if it removes toning them most likely the coin was artificially toned to start with. It won't affect natural toning. Acetone is basically a degreasing agent. Edited by Conder101 01/17/2015 06:26 am Report this Post to the Staff
