RE: cleaning vinyl
Nancy,
I have cleaned vinyl surfaces on several Pop-Art works of art. First my
questions.
Are these marks actually accretions (color on the surface) or loss of the
surface layer? Is the vinyl matte or glossy?
Is the vinyl thin or thick? Is it on a fabric support?

Subject: cleaning vinyl
Has anyone had experience removing scuff marks from
vinyl? I have been asked to conserve, for exhibition,
a 35 year year old yellow vinyl bathing suit. The
suit has "scuff marks" (cause unknown). It has been
suggested that I cover them over with pastels for the
exhibition. Any ideas? I would appreciate
suggestions as soon as possible.
Thanks, Nancy Love
