Subject: Stubbornness? Was Re: Adhesive for Ivories
I won't debate Reblitz. He's just flat wrong, that's all.=20
This isn't to say I don't respect the man or his book. But there are =
better materials and techniques. Some of the stuff in his book is a =
little dated--believe it or not there IS scientific progress in the =
treatment of these beasts that haven't changed all that much in a =
hundred years.
For all who want to argue, I say: "Don't be stubborn. Get some PVC-E. =
Use this inexpensive, easy, safe, non-smelly, forgiving stuff on your =
ivories, your plastic, and your felt. Then, with experience, if you =
choose to use contact cement (shudder), CA, boiled cow's feet, Gorilla =
Glue, or chewing gum, I have no problem ... do your thing."
This isn't meant to sound as high-horse as it probably does ... don't =
nobody take no offense nohow, please, not even Mr. Reblitz. (But he IS =
wrong.) <G>
