Description

Camger Coating Systems Inc. http://www.camger.com/coatings.htm

Poly Preserve Aliphatic Urethane Barrier poly(propylene glycol) Camger was making two different formulations: Polyglase 1-175 and 1-146. 1-175 was the formulation that was originally developed and tested for conservation use, but 1-146 was very similar in formulation and cost. For a period the company kept 1-146 but discontinued the 1-175, then later restarted production of 1-175.

1-175 has shown excellent adhesion properties to a wide variety of substrates such as, solid woods, particleboard, medite II. 1-175 when applied properly will provide adequate protection against contaminants.
