silver dollars and acetone

I have several silver dollars that need to be graded. They have all been stored in an cardboard album, (since at least 1968). All the coins have a clean obverse but the reverse is discolored.
Would these coins benefit from an acetone bath?
Would they grade out better if they were shiny on both sides?
If they get the acetone bath, will PCGS say they have been cleaned.
These are the first pictures that I have taken that have turned out half way decent.
