CLEANING BATH FOR COPPER COINS #321584 (click to download pdf documentation)

This cleaning bath removes oxidation from tarnished copper (Cu) coins. This bath should only be used to clean coins which are oxidized or tarnished. It is not suitable for antique coins with uniformed coloring, as it will result in patina damage. Bath can be used to clean a number of coins at once, and care should be taken to only clean coins of the same material together. To clean different alloy types, clean each type separately. This cleaning bath will give a matt finish and will not polish to a deep shine.

Instructions for use:

1. Place the coins into the basket
2. Make sure that multiple coins do not touch each other.
3. Lower into the bath.
4. TIMING
   The heavier the tarnishing, the longer they will need to be in the bath. In most cases, 3 to 5 minutes should be sufficient.
5. For extreme tarnishing (e.g. on coins which have been buried), coins can be left in bath for up to 20 minutes, however this requires constant supervision and the coins should be removed as soon as the oxidation has been removed.
6. Hard deposits can be gently removed with a soft brush (toothbrush) and green rust with a sponge; after removal dip briefly in the bath again.
7. After cleaning, take out the basket with the coins and rinse under running water.
8. Gently pat the coins dry with a soft cloth. Do not rub.
9. Remove liquid after use.
