Zinc plates

There are several deteriorating zinc plates among the University of
Florida's Ishill Plate Block Collection.  Deterioration appears to
be marked by efflorescence. Assistance is requested to stabilize
these plates and mitigate further deterioration or in identifying
conservators with experience in the stabilization of zinc plates or
objects.
