Archival Bondo?
Hi all,
In the past (20-30 years ago).. our mount maker regularly used Bondo to create custom cavities/castings of the bottoms of objects to use as stability supports in casework. We are now looking to do something similar but are needing an archival-friendly version of this product. So far all we have found is the Aves Apoxie Sculpt and found it to be too doughy for this application and need something more malleable. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I've not used Aves, so I'm not sure how the texture would compare, but I usually use Milliput for this application. It's not cheap, but conservators are fine with it, and you can easily sand it and cover it with archival felt. I like the results I get from it. Happy mountmaking!
