Mint State Restoration™’s Paraloid™ B-72 10% in Acetone is a medium-strength archival adhesive and consolidant designed for general-purpose repairs. Offering balanced strength, it’s ideal for reinforcing hairline cracks, securing loose paint, or repairing moderate breaks in ceramics, fossils, coins, or metal detector finds.
