Re: [BKARTS] tips to avoid getting glue on paper

Yes StikFlat adhesive is decidedly not acidic,
but will turn brown with age.

| Sue,
| I suggest that you NOT use "YES" Stix-Flat adhesive. It is very acidic
and
| will turn brown and loose it bond in a relatively short period. I
would use
| a
| dextrin base paste (modified wheat starch) We sell Novex Non-Warp
Paste. But,
| almost anything you use will be better than "YES."
|
| PVA is not suitable for end-papers because is not reversible and won't
allow
| for repositioning, and it is more prone to warping boards, etc.
