How do you preservere or care for a ball that has shellac on it? - ball preserving jars
I have a 1929 signed Yankee team ball. It was customary at that time, the shellac in an attempt to be preserved for the ball. It sounds very little, and I want to keep the ball and prevent further damage.
Suggestions?

Ball Preserving Jars How Do You Preservere Or Care For A Ball That Has Shellac On It?

Sorry, Rock, you do not give much credit, good people?
First, the shellac is actually a derivative of an insect, when combined with a solvent which is used in combination as a protector. Later is was used shellac as a base for the paint, was made with cotton seeds. Nitrocellulose lacquer is extremely flammable and is just steps away from the explosive nitroglycerine ... But you need not worry about that ... I just wanted to know, rock.
Unfortunately, the shellac is a very hard substance. The reason is that the ball expands and contracts more than the Peel Shellac is and who is "peeling".
The best way to protect them, is a room with constant temperature and humidity to keep away from sources of heat and light.
If you get the idea that the ball can be coated with shellac immersion, not a brush, a 50:50-solution of shellac / thin. Shellac considered 100% burn-in means that subsequent requests will be merged into the existing ones. I do not knowwant, even if proved.
I am interested in the assumptions that people give this answer (see here, because nobody really knows). I've never heard this question before and I am sure that most people here do not even know what "shellac". I give one star on this issue.
