Yes, tell us what method you used. How long did you soak, toothpicks, etc.
I've had limited success, but I believe it's in my approach.

The example is "light" green verdigris. Fairly new corrosion. Worse areas replaced with a red hue as seen in photos. Older dark spots stay dark but are better. I like the removal of the hazy surface verdigris and residue just as much. It removed some scratches (in the residue) and made others show up (buried by residue). A bit of a gamble there I guess.
Fatboy: No soak, one drop and a Q-tip performed twice (Need microfiber cloth but couldn't wait :)
I was probably a little more aggressive than I would be with a nice coin (this was a junk piece). I wanted to know how far I could go. VC seems safe enough, how much to rub will be your call.
John1: Yeah, it cut into my BU buying power, saving it for emergencies only :)

Can't believe you guy's haven't bought it before this. Bad Thad made me a believer months ago. I use this to conserve problem coins and until he comes up with something else, I might even have my heirs soak me in it before my internment.   It's that good! |

carmykle, I'm still sort of new here and have a lot of things to buy. Buying "supplies" hurts if you know what I mean. I'm doing it but man...

Not sure, you can contact BadThad since he is the inventor of the product and see if anyone else carries it at a B&M store but I know that wizardsupply sells it online, or used to. You may get a better price ordering it directly from BadThad though, not sure |

Just take it slow and easy. All good things come with time. I didn't mean for that to sound condescending, I was just embellishing.
