Hello everyone,

Can anyone tell me if they know of any dangers posed, in terms of off-gassing for example, in the occasional use of sweeping compound to help reduce the floor dust in large collections storage spaces? I know it leaves a fragrance behind, but not for long.

We have a mixed collection of works of art, furniture, and a very few metal objects, and are looking for any additional ways of keeping down the dust.

Many thanks
