mr. wiggles Posted November 27, 2024 · Member Posted November 27, 2024 That’s fantastic. Can you provide some guidance on your procedure for these late billon ants? I was this cleaned manually or with some chemicals (or a combination)? 3 Quote

mr. wiggles Posted November 27, 2024 · Member Posted November 27, 2024 If I understand you the Probus was cleaned manually? If so, that’s a beautiful job manually cleaning. I recently had a super encrusted coin that I’ve used a slightly alkaline chelate solution to clean. It was covered in some very tenacious mineral and verdigris and the chelate helped remove that, so I was curious if a similar approach worked on billon. 1 Quote
