Re: [BKARTS] reversible, archival glues

Haven't used it. I used to use DuPont Elvace 1874, which was my 
favorite, but DuPont sold the Elvace business years ago. Talas sells 
a product called Elvace 45675 that they say is the same as Elvace 
1874, but I haven't tried it, nor am I convinced that anything made 
today by Forbo would be chemically identical to a product made by 
DuPont 20 or 30 years ago.  That doesn't mean it's bad--just that it 
needs testing for archival properties.
