Paper is considered by most restoration professionals to be the hardest medium to restore.
In fact, many who call themselves restorers cannot perform conservation or restoration of paper.
Before fifty years ago the process of acidification was not widely understood, and archival materials were often overlooked for the preservation of valuable documents.
At Restoration By Heart we are well recognized for our expertise with paper. Gustavo Perez has developed many proprietary techniques in working with acid, tears, rips, creases and paper depletion.
We have restored paper in cases in which over half of the surface was missing.
The Los Angeles Times has published a major article on the rare ability of Gustavo Perez and Restoration By Heart to perform miracles in bringing damaged paper back to life.
