crusherjc Valued Member United States 139 Posts	Posted 02/10/2009 10:23 pm Has anyone ever used it? I've tried researching it andcant find much about it. From what I have found, sounds like a safe cleaner, that will not affect coins surface or luster, just remove any light toning. Is this possible? Report this Post to the Staff

If you absolutely Must clean one there are a variety of solutions you can use without buying some homemade chemical cocktail from a non-numismatic company. Acetone, Olive Oil, Distilled Water, etc. Quote: MS-70 8 oz. Coin Cleaner Coin Collecting Supplies SKU: MS-70 Brand: Betterbilt Chemicals MS-70 8 oz. coin cleaner.

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 02/10/2009 10:33 pm Do not use MS70 on any coins containing copper. For silver/gold it's best used on AU or MS coins when you want to remove surface contamination or light toning. It is a harsh cleaner IMHO. It works well and I've used it on many silver bullion coins. I would not use it on any coin of significant numismatic value. The statement, "will not affect coins surface or luster" is not true. There will be some affect to both the surface and the luster of the coin though it is usually minor. Remember this is a cleaner - experiment with low value coins and see if you like the results.

Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 02/12/2009 12:17 am I actually was given a small bit of this by my dealer one time. I had bought from him a 1935 Canadian Dollar in AU, which had horrific PVC Damage. Seriously, due to the amount of PVC film present, the mass of this coin was nearly about 300% of what it should have been. So I scrubbed this coin for hours, and finally I removed 99.9% of the film. It is now an acceptable looking coin. I only paid bullion on the coin, so I got a good deal even though it is not a cleaned coin. I'm happy to say that it has retoned a bit over the past couple of years. Report this Post to the Staff
