I am forwarding this question from Bruce Taylor-Hille, Curator of the Texas Maritime Museum. Does anyone have a sugestion on a way to fireproof a bale of cotton. The local fire marshall says to fireproof it or remove it from their exhibit gallery. Any information would be appreciated. You can reply to me or contact Bruce directly at (512) 729-1271.
