Old Change
03/24/14 at 05:49:03

OK, Jack-of-All trades. I have an old bucket of change I would like to roll and take to the bank. Probably have of a 5 gallon bucket to be exact. A lot of it is corroded and filthy. I would certainly be embarrassed if I they looked at it. Is their some kind of metal polisher, cleaner, that I could use? Brasso works pretty good, but it is pretty expensive for a little bottle. Thanks. Cheesy

Used a rotating cement type mixer and various chemicals and abrasives. But here is a guy that used a cleaner called CLR to do the same thing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-dM3dQud-Q Good hunting

Mechanically you might try rolling the coins around in a tumbler or cement mixer with some corn cobs, walnut shells or similar abrasive. Or.....maybe you can just put them in the wrappers and cash them in and no one will have to see what color they are.

I saved all my change for 10 years and thought it would be half way decent. I'll have do a bit of work but it'll be worth it. Thanks again.
