Good morning, fellow MuseumLers - As a textile/costume conservator, I have
been often accused of always having a fibre/fabric answer for collection
care questions. In this case, may I suggest slip-covers tailored to each one
(could be made out of one of the Tyveks, which technically isn't fabric) or
drop cloth covers? The covers would also provide protection from light
exposure as well as provide water-resistance (if made from one of the
Tyveks). If the accession number is written bold upon the covers, it makes
locating a particular object easier, too.
>>Consequently, they need to be protected against dust, dirt and grime, and
handled wearing clean nitrile gloves.>>
Regards,
Margaret (Meg) Geiss-Mooney
