...for stabilization of some punky plaster...>

Found a reference to a Kyanoil as a timber preservative  (a mercury compound,
supposedly).  The resin product you refer to must be something else!?  Did
you ever find your file, John?

What's Acyloid B-67?

Someone mentioned the vinegar wash spec'd on a Sherwin Williams latex paint
can.
Harry Francis - longtime consultant for USG - allows it would probably work.
He imagines the reactions would involve Calcium Acetate (lime + acetic acid)
and Calcium Sulfate (gypsum), making a glue-like paste that would form a hard
surface when dry.  Interesting.....
