Documenting conservation materials

Providing instructions and user tips for chemicals used by
conservators and restorers is never easy. As a specialist
distributor of chemical products one relies in the most upon
knowledge being shared since the original intended use is usually
far removed from the world of conservation.

I am presently trying to upgrade a number of the data sheets we have
for chemical products in our range, and would appreciate any user
hints or guidance notes for the likes of Gum Elemi, Paraloid B44 and
48N, Plextol B500 and M630, Primal B60A (also known as AC33),
Mowital B30H, PVA solid resin Vinapas and pre-vulcanized latex.

Updating technical sheets not only helps future conservators and
restorers but also ensures the continued availability of such
products.
