Material may be subject to ultra-violet deterioration
unless coated or filters added;
Rigidity of material often must be modified with
fillers to match expansion coefficients;
Vapor impermeable.

Are historic materials available for molds or for
splicing-in as repair option?
Has the epoxy resin been formulated within the
expansion/contraction coefficients of adjacent
materials?
Have samples been matched for color/finish?

Is there a sound substrate of material to avoid
