Fine Grade Conservation Netting (as used in fine repairs to artefacts, museum pieces or old items that need a fabric style repair).

I wondered if anyone had used this sort of material as a substitute for Plaster Bandage, for doing stuff such as embankment sides. Maybe as a layer over card woven areas or a fine steel mesh base? I saw it being used on The Repair Shop and a particular type I have found is available in a 25m x1m) metre roll for around £12.

I envisage using it after application to the base, with a well diluted but nice and gloopy glue mix so it becomes fairly rigid ready for the top treatment. Plaster Bandage is OK but does need water and water creates moisture!

Thanks,

Phil
