Subject: Small suction tools
I am interested in purchasing a small area suction tool or device primarily for use for tape removal and related adhesive/stain reduction treatments. Most of our lab's work is book conservation, but some flat paper treatment is also anticipated. I am requesting recommendations from conservators using any small area suctions devices, such as a fritted glass disk, small suction platens, hand-held tools etc. I am interested observations, both positive and negative, regarding the use the tool and its effectiveness in various treatment applications.
