Welcome to opalholicsanonymous.com where opal season lasts forever.

I just use on old pickle or mason jar and soak it. I just use the regular lid. Heck, I've left them in there for a couple of days even. As he said, it tends to remove water as well so I've had better luck getting color back into welos after soaking in acetone and letting it dry.

But don't buy fingernail polish remover. Most of the time that's no longer acetone. I buy mine from the hardware store.

Wow that's pretty weird, but it must work cuz I believe you.

I worry about the acetone to dry with Virgin Valley being a fast drier so after the acetone baths, without drying it in between, go to just as many water baths to remove the acetone and slow the drying back to more normal speed.

Some nice stones, lol great looking opal!
