Any recommendation on how to clean this without it falling apart? NOTE: light diffused with typing paper... looks more even. Edited by levelsofmadnes 06/29/2019 3:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 76905 Posts	Posted 06/29/2019 3:46 pm Might be WDDO-004. Stage B examples will have a Die Chip in the 8 of the date. Yours shows a Die Chip in the 8. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
levelsofmadnes Pillar of the Community United States 3003 Posts	Posted 06/29/2019 4:02 pm Thanks Errers and Varietys. Do you think 100% acetone will make it fall apart? Report this Post to the Staff

I don't think that it is the acetone that you need worry about so much as the zinc rot. You could stabilize this, but the inexorable deterioration process has already begin.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 76905 Posts	Posted 06/29/2019 4:43 pm You could try Acetone and Verdi-Care. Verdi-Care might be able to get rid of some of that crud off. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
