It basically says: "contact a conservator".
Not very helpful or
interesting IMO.
What I gather from my reading is that no one's got any good
procedures yet, other than low-temperature storage. Basically,
plastics are inherently unstable and keeping them around for future
generations is going to be a tough nut to crack.
POPART has perhaps the best-funded conservation research project on
plastics, so it's a site to watch for news.
