I apologize if this has already been covered but I haven't found the posting 
yet if it has.
We are about to have some work done on our collections storage area.  It will 
mostly involve painting but there is the chance that we might have to repair 
the concrete walls.  What kind of precautions do we have to take with the 
concrete?  How long does the paint have to cure before we can start moving 
the collections back in?  There are also hot water pipes running right across 
the middle of the room.  Since there is no chance that we will be able to get 
them rerouted, can I have suggestions on how to, er- live with them?  We are 
planning to get waterproof covers for the shelving, to be used in addition to 
moisture barrier boxes.  Also, the concrete walls will need to be repaired 
around where the pipes come in and go out of the room.  Can anyone 
recommend a safe sealer to use where the pipes meet the concrete?
My message is probably sounding pretty scatterbrained at this point.  I've 
never been involved in a project like this before and any pointers would be 
much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jen
