Scientific Study on use of Air Abrasion for Fossil Prep

[DeepTimeIsotopes]

I just found this paper on air abrasion for those of us that would like to increase our knowledge and maybe adjust our techniques while using air abrasives.

Is it just me, or doesn't your "link" work?

This is a very good article, easy reading but not a lot of new information though that is not available elsewhere.

Very good read. Thanks @UtahFossilHunter 

 

I do most of my work with scribes and only use abrasive when I absolutely need to. I think it’s a matter of training. I learned to prep with scribes and acid so that’s what I lean to.

For a person new to air abrasion this is an excellent source thank you very much for sharing.
