From Adam Savage’s Tested.

At @metmuseum, the object conservation department is always working with archival materials. How do they know which, such as paint, are safe to use on or around the artifacts? Conservation preparator Jacob Goble takes Adam Savage on a tour of the museum’s paint room and explains their painstaking process (and, yes, Adam whipped out his phone to take pictures of all the tools and paints he plans to buy now).
