PEL Wet Strength Repair Tissue
This toned tissue is specifically designed for wet repairs in paintings and paper conservation. The tissue is exclusive to PEL. Paintings and paper conservators are finding that the tissue is the strongest wet strength tissue available and has a higher wet strength than tissues offered by other suppliers. The tissue has a unique lint-free long fibre non-woven special blend of high strength, large diameter premium grade abacca fibres and other selected cellulose fibres. The fibres are specially selected for tensile, tear and porosity control at light basic weight and to facilitate natural bonding. The structure is characterised as non-abrasive, highly absorbent and consistently uniform in caliper, basic weight and pore size distribution. This uniformity provides exceptional fibre retention under stress with excellent drapability and elongation.
