<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mirana, post: 9547043, member: 79705&quot;]Vinegar is what I use on mold as it&#039;s what is recommended to kill it utterly and it has always done so for me. I don&#039;t think you need to soak it, but perhaps spot treat areas? I know conservators use solution baths but they have a much more advanced set up.</p><p><br /></p><p>UV also kills mold. If the foxing is only in the margins where there is no print, that would be ideal for this method. Cover the printed areas with acid free paper to size and a weight, and let it sit in the sunshine for a while?</p><p><br /></p><p>Obviously foxing could be mold, or it could come from the particles in the paper itself. In which case it&#039;s just going to look it&#039;s age.</p><p><br /></p><p>Interested to know what others think. I haven&#039;t done a deep dive into paper conservation because their methods look intimidating, but I wonder what info is out there for DIY.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
