TreasureGirl Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Okay, how do I get this ugly stuff off? Best I can think of is make it a pocket coin and wear it off eventually, though I think I'll lose it before then. Versus dipping it in nail polish remover...

Mark Stilson Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Letting it soak in acetone, to get rid of the nail polish. But it will probably alway show a lighter color where the nail polish was, unless you do keep it as a pocket piece for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WranglerOldDan Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I don't think I could ever put it in my pocket after that! If that is the worst thing you ever have in your pocket, your lucky! Why bother with it, as it can be replaced for around $2 at the most. You will spend more than that on cleaning fluid.

just carl Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Do not use nail polish remover. If you read the lable is contains all kinds of other stuff. Acetone will probably not work either. Your best bet is to use pure Laquer Thinner. That is not a valuable coin anyway so the Laquer Thinner will not harm the metal. If you are serious about saving that coin after the thinner, use the Acetone, then rinse with distilled water, place on a cotton towel, blow dry with a hair dryer on cool setting, not hot. When finished give to a neighborhood kid, your kid(s) or find a bar, have a drink, leave that coin as a tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
