The "Cuhna Coctail" has some basis of legitimacy--before we had Wei-to and Bookkeeper a slightly more precise version was occasionally used, but I don't know anyone who would use it anymore, except as a fun science experiment.  It's really much easier to use Bookkeeper, which can be found from a number of archival suppliers.

Bookeeper is...deacidification spray? I think I had bought a can years ago and it didn't go very far towards the work I was doing. It was...$19/can? And I think, to apply it on books and documents, etc., that are critical...I would need about 50 cans! There has got to be a better way!
