>Dear members of the TexConsList,

>I am a student in Textile Conservation from the University of Applied Arts in
Vienna. This year I am working on my diploma project, the conservation of a
silk dress (dated around 1840). The lining is cotton, treated with a starch
finish. A main focus in conservation is the degraded silk fabric in the
underarm areas because of perspiration stains. Due to the degrading effect on
the silk fibre I would like to remove or reduce the perspiration residues, if
possible. Has somebody experience in removing perspiration stains on silk
without complete wet cleaning of the object? I have not found much literature
to this topic during my research.
