<div style="margin:0px;font-size:12pt;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)">I was looking for some advice on alternatives for blu-tak when used on natural science specimens. I know there is no perfect solution but the scientists at our museum continue to use
 it and I am hoping there is something better. They use it a lot in housing to keep a specimen in place or during microscopy. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.</div>
