Subject: Consolidation of outdoor soapstone rock formation
We are involved in a project, trying to find consolidants for use on outdoor natural soapstone rock formations directly on the ground, sporadically decorated with prehistoric rock carvings. The environment conditions, the soapstone is experiencing, is a Scandinavian climate with rain, sun, and bitter frost during the winter. Does anyone have experience with materials such as Mowilith DM772 or Mowilith 9742S for such a problem. If so, which one to prefer. Or are there better alternatives for that purpose.
