LASCAUX POLYAMIDE TEXTILE WELDING POWDER No 5065

A thermoplastic resin that can be used as a hot-melt adhesive for textiles and leather. It is widely used in conservation for tear mending of paintings on canvas. The tensile strength is sufficient in most cases.

The easiest way of application is to stick the tip of a heated spatula into the powder and then apply the melted polyamide. Another method consists of melting the polyamide powder with an iron between two sheets of polyester film, in order to obtain a coat of approximately 1-2 mm thickness. After cooling, the polyamide coat is cut in very thin strips. These strips are then used together with the heated spatula to weld the threads.
