This may seem like a pretty mundane question, but everyone I know that I
have asked has given me a different answer, so I'll try here. What are your
various methods of printing catalog numbers on artifacts? I'm coming into a
place which has used the "Let's put white out on the artifact and write on
that" method of labeling, which I don't particularly like, so I'm trying to
develop a different method.
So--
Do you use pigma pens? India Ink and fountain pens or quills? Acrylic ink?
How do you keep the process reversible?
Write directly on artifact? or not?
What about 25% solution of B72 in acetone? Health hazards? University
Products has an opaque version of this solution. Good? Bad?
Any other methods? Suppliers of stuff would be helpful as well.
TIA
