Lineco 870-894 book cleaning and repair kit
What this tool is for
The set offers separate materials for different repair tasks. A hinge repair calls for a different contact and support than a tear in a sheet. Choose the relevant repair material after you identify which part of the book has failed.

Questions about this tool
Do both mending products activate with water?
The tape is listed as water-activated. The transparent tissue is pressure-sensitive. Follow the directions for each material.
When would I buy a micro spatula separately?
Choose it when you need a narrow tool to place paste or reach under an edge. It is a different tool from the included folder.
What should I do before using the cleaner?
Check the intended surface in the kit instructions. Try the method on a suitable sample before working on important material.
