Planko Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Hi Everyone, I have several verts that are encased within the red matrix from NSR. Has anyone soaked that in a vinegar solution? If so, did it work? Did it hurt the fossils? If there is another way to remove it let me know. Planko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planko My friend does a 30 minute vinegar soak between each brushing before rinsing. I have lots that need prepped but I don't have the time unfortunately.

Ptychodus04 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I have always scribed the matrix off. It separates well from the fossils in most cases. 1 1 Regards, Kris Global Paleo Services, LLC https://globalpaleoservices.com http://instagram.com/globalpaleoservices http://instagram.com/kris.howe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
