A homogenised rigid gel, obtained from the double cooking of Agar-Agar, suitable for the cleaning of any type of surface. Very useful when you need to use water in thickened form. 

Nevek strongly retains water and can be used for soil absorption even from water-sensitive surfaces, as it works like a sponge, absorbing inside the solubilised material.

Sold as 1kg bottles.

Fields of application

Nevek can be used in all fields of restoration, given that it can support both aqueous solutions and solvents, releasing them in a gradual and controlled way.

Possible applications can be: 

Removal of dirt and residues of old glues and protective coatings from stone surfaces, plasters, murals, panel and canvas paintings, paper, wood, even polychrome, pottery, archaeological finds. 

Extraction of salts from stone surfaces, mosaics, archaeological finds and wall paintings. 

Removal of varnishes from wood, even polychrome, panel and canvas paintings and stone. 

Moisture intake with high control of liquid water diffusion.

In paper conservation it can be used to release old repairs and facilitate adhesive removal.

It is especially useful when working with parchment, as it can be formed to the contours of the skin.
