I'm a Cuban student on restauration finishing my studies on the
subject specializing in Modern Art Restoration. For the purpose of
finishing my thesis I would like to know more information on the
properties of Modostuc. So far I have not found enough information
on the web concerning this topic. Thanks in advance.

    **** Moderator's comments: I can't say for sure, but there may
    be some information in the following articles (The first two
    were found in AATA, that latter two in CHIN)
