Hello - I wonder if anyone can recommend a safe length of time for curing newly-painted wood before putting the wood back into a display case with objects? We're planning to update some display cases whose slat-board backs need a little attention. I've been told the paint will be latex and it will be sealed with a coat of polyurethane. It can be cured in the open air and/or with fans or heat lamps. Thanks for your input and advice, Lindsey Richardson Collections Manager The Children's Museum 300 Congress Street Boston, MA 02210 Tel. 617 426 6500 x.366 Fax 617 426 1944 Opening June 27: MAKING AMERICA'S MUSIC A brand new exhibit in collaboration with Boston Symphony Orchestra Come sing, dance, jam and even conduct!
