Acrylic adhesives

We are experimenting with Lascaux acrylic adhesives (498 HV in
particular) for use in book conservation, and want to know how
conservators in any fields use (or don't use) this class of
adhesives.

    In what types of treatments do you use Lascaux adhesives?

    Which specific Lascaux adhesives do you use?

    How do you apply them?

    Have you had any problems with reversibility, yellowing, and/or
    blocking?

Thanks for your input,
