Tree Cookie Preservation - Seeking information

[Jim Wright]

Hello Gentlemen,
Just to follow-up on my tree cookie preservation posting:  I have treated a few samples with PEG and a few with Pentacryl as suggested.  Both have now been drying for almost 2 months, and except for faded colors and some white fuzzy mold, they have not cracked at all.  I will shortly sand a few down, then coat with polyurethane to bring up the original colors.  If all goes well, I will post a photo to give a “before & after” to your viewers.
Thanks again for the great advice.
Sincerely,
Jim Wright

Hello Ed,

Finally, attached is a copy of my finished tree cookie.  It was soaked in Pentacryl, then coated with polyurethane.  It is much darker than the one I soaked in PEG, but that on is in Switzerland and no photo available.

               

                       

                                       

               

Could you please post this "after" photo to your web site.  

Thanks for all your help.
Regards,
Jim Wright
