Museum Anchoring Products

Protect your valuables! Use the same hidden anchoring that has proven to be indispensable to museums to secure your vases, statues, and other collectables. All are non-drying, non-toxic, non-damaging, removable and reusable.
MUSEUM PUTTY The Collectors Hold Putty is the most universal product and will hold up to 40 pounds of weight. We recommend this product for objects that are frequently moved (like wine glasses) because it comes off so easily and cleanly. The putty qualities include: Easy to use and remove, works great on items with pedestal feet or thin ridged bottoms, reusable, non-toxic and clean.
HINT: One package will secure 40-80 items. Use on antiques and collectibles, behind picture frames, and great in moving vehicles like RV's or even boats.

MUSEUM WAX Crystalline Museum Wax is excellent for collectibles on high shelves and in hard to get locations where they are not likely to be moved often. The wax qualities include: instant stickiness for quick gripping, non-acidic, reversible and non-toxic.
HINT: Best for most wood and pottery. For years, Museum Conservators have been using this blended microcrystalline wax to anchor "priceless" art, historical artifacts and antiques from falling and breaking due to earthquakes and accidents. Following their example, collectors worldwide are enjoying the same benefits of preservation for the most precious of collectibles...even on fine wood. With the pick provided, scoop out the amount required and roll into small balls or strips and apply to bottom of object. Press object into place. Removal is easy with mineral spirits and/or dental floss. We recommend this wax for objects that are more permanently placed. It is simply the best wax you can buy for anchoring precious pieces against unsafe movement.

MUSEUM GEL Clear Gel is an outstanding product for securing see-through glass and crystal objects. Perfect on glass shelves...it's so clear you won't even know it's underneath. The gel qualities include: A clear bond that holds tight, instant removal, non-toxic, clean to the touch and reusable too. HINT: A little goes a long way! One jar can secure 300 items!

Clear Museum Gel is the ultimate product for securing your see-through glass and crystal items. Simply form small balls and place evenly underneath the object and press into place. To remove gently twist up and dab off excess. Clear Gel takes 30-60 minutes for a complete adherence and is completely removable and reusable. The gel is not recommended for use at an angle or on items with pedestal feet and thin ridged bottoms. Protection is at its best not only from earthquakes but playful children, accidental bumping, housekeepers and cats.
