Contemporary materials

Contemporary materials are a more recent field in conservation-restoration and one that is still in development. Contemporary materials are very sensitive and their conservation and restoration require a deep scientific understand of their production and aging. 

Michelin man

The Michelin man and the Michelin sign are made of PMMA and were restored for the Michelin Museum. The restoration involved cleaning, glueing, filling and retouching.
