That makes sense. I will heavily mist. To your first point I was able to see that I reduced the browning or aging along the fold lines, and the fold lines were not as pronounced. Do you let the masa dry before adding poster?
-
I guess I was lucky, I missed the step of washing then mounting to masa.
-
You don’t wash, and let dry before backing?
-
Could it be the black ink? -
My first attempt on a one sheet came out flat compared to my second attempt, I am stumped? -
How is it avoided in the future? -

Had a great wash, distilled water, and blotter dried, yet still… -
It is a one sheet.
-
Well I tried it and it works great.
-
You really don’t use sparkling??

Attached is a poster in good shape but has brown at the folds. I do not want to bleach, any suggestions on how to get them out? Will just a wash in warm water work? It was suggested to use ammonia in a video, any suggestions are welcome.

This poster was full of tape on the back and almost completely brown stains.

Who has the best cotton duct, easy to use and not primed?

Bleached my first piece today. Overall a B-. The black spots disappeared, the whites went from yellow to white, and overall pleased. The reds did fade and will need touch up once completed.
-
Any recommendations for best blotters to use for best results?
-
Got it and see on Google. Many different types to explore. It makes sense now because drywall is paper.

Once the wet work is completed how do you properly dry ?

Is a heavier paper like Masa 70gsm, easier to work with or the lighter Mulberry?
-
I notice that poster mountain blogs mention a commercially available compound they use to fill in paper voids if they can’t use paper. Any idea what that compound is or were to get it?
-
Charlie any idea what compound is used or bought from to fill in paper voids? It is mentioned many times in poster mountain blogs?

Do you use Holytex or Mylar to make a sandwich for bleaching and cleaning? What thickness or number?
-
Does anyone have a working receive for the paste fill?
-
Is anyone using an airbrush on the voids once filled?
-
Paper backing looks to be better and easier to have positive results. Conservators use paper backing instead of linen.
Charlie can you define the process in more detail?
suppler for holy text? -
Very nice
-
Anyone have a good video on wet work?
-
Never mind I was working on an sop for linen backing.
