We have a number of Plaster casts on long-term loan from a large 
institution.  The casts were previously stored in sub-optimal 
conditions, resulting in some water damage, and layer upon layer of 
dirt and grime.  (There even appears to be areas of dark over painting  
on some.)  We are currently cleaning them with vinyl erasers, which is 
doing a remarkable job, really, but I was hoping that someone may have 
some alternate suggestions for the particularly grubby and even over 
painted areas.

I would be most grateful for any advice...
Cheryl
