Our objects conservator, Spencer Waldron, has used Cellugel on several
leather objects with dry rot (luggage, books), and he has been extremely
pleased with the product.  I had gotten a sample of it at AAM a few years
ago, and he liked it so much he ordered the full size.  It really works
beautifully.
