Abstract
The article discusses the importance of valid and appropriate testing of materials and techniques in conservation, and uses the testing during the development of BEVA 371 as an example. It describes the tests chosen, the reasons for their choice, and how they were modified for this application. It also deals with interpretation of results and understanding the limitations of testing. See also AATA 8-1359 for related study and 21-1334 for entire proceedings.
