    Attention Archaeological Conservators: Do you or have you
    treated archaeological iron for chloride contamination?  What
    methods have you used?  Have you tried variations on treatment
    methods?  Have you phased out older methods?  Have you been able
    to re-visit objects previously treated to assess the methods
    used? Please participate in a short, 2 page survey to record
    information on archaeological iron treatments.  Responses will
    be confidential and tabulated results will be shared with all
    respondents.  This work is part of a post-graduate internship
    research project through the Gerald R. Ford Conservation Center.
    To discuss the project and/or to receive a copy of the
    questionnaire, please contact
