PaleoBOND PB002 Penetrant Stabilizer 2 oz kit for stabilizing fossils and more

Description

PB002 PENETRANT STABILIZER
is the workhorse of the
PaleoBOND
family.
Penetrant Stabilizer
acts as a PRIMER for all other
PaleoBOND
adhesives to achieve maximum bond strength. With a very low viscosity of almost zero, it penetrates deep into the vascular system of a fossil bone, mineral, petrified wood or other substrate.
PB002
fills micro cracks by capillary action, flowing into the narrow spaces and pores of a fossil, mineral, etc. stabilizing and strengthening the entire specimen upon curing.
Penetrant Stabilizer
captures punky, weak fossil, wood or mineral material and hardens it in minutes.  This product will become your favorite adhesive tool! The internal and external condition of a fossil bone surface or mineral cache can be a frustrating challenge.  Mother Nature kind of ignored the quality of preservation on some of the fossils and minerals and we have to try and correct her failings.
PB002
just may become your best tool out in the field. It hardens the fragile remains in-situ so you can remove the fossil or mineral without further damage. Make sure that all matrix is clear from any specimens you treat in the field. It’s quite difficult to remove the matrix once you’ve put
PB002
on it. If you need to do further prep back in your shop or lab,
PB4417
or
PB4418
is a better field option, as it can be mechanically removed with your tools.
If you have any Pyrite disease, just apply
PB002
to stop any further oxidation.
PB002
seals and stabilizes the specimen.
The Kit includes
: One 2 oz. bottle of
Penetrant Stabilizer PB002
with 4 microtips.
Please note that the microtips are tight fitting. It helps to slightly warm the end of the tip with a match or lighter to soften the plastic before putting on the bottle nipple.
