I've recently begun working on catching up the catalog of artifacts and 
other inventory of the small museum for which I work, and one of the things 
that has come up that I do not have in my supplies, is the "stuff" you put 
on an artifact on which you write the accession number.

There is also a clear coating that you put over this "base" that seals the 
ink. I not only don't know where to find this kind of thing, but I don't 
even know what it is called.

Also, if anyone can suggest sources for this, (preferably online sources) as 
well as good archival pens with which to mark artifacts, I would appreciate 
it!
