Ah, I received the same kit for my birthday. I'm still very much a newbie when it comes to cleaning the coins, but I've cleaned 3 out of 5 to a rather high degree (the other two are lost causes). All I can say is just begin very gently and gradually apply more pressure. I have gotten much more detail after just letting the coins soak in the liquid solution for days at a time. Good luck!
