Paraloid™ B-72 100ml (5% Concentration)

Great product arrived on time in good packaging...I tried the 5% ratio and I think that looks good for my needs... natural looking clean coins now..will definitely purchase again.

I have 10%,20% and the new 5% is amazing!! Makes the Romans look like they were dropped yesterday.
Arteseal is a must for every detectorist!

Not wanting to go *too* shiny on my fibulas I opted for the 5% Arteseal which seems to be a good middle ground for now. Application is super simple - just dip the (supplied) brush in the liquid and brush gently on. That's it. The Arteseal goes off quickly as you work, meaning it's easy to turn your artifacts or coins around as you go without spoiling anything in doing so.
The result is subtle but effective without looking artificial. As you can see from my unfiltered before/after pics, this little brooch had been cleaned but was looking pale and dry (for want of a better word). After applying a coat of Arteseal the green had deepened just enough for it to look all-round healthier and more natural and I know it's now protected going forward. Once I get a display cabinet it and its siblings will be taking pride of place!
