    Description

    We sell a LOT of specimens that are mounted in clear plastic cases or are attached to acrylic bases for display,  and people often ask us "hey, where can I get some of that putty-like material that you use to mount your mineral specimens?"  This "putty-like" material is commonly known as Mineral Putty or Mineral Tack (tac) in the mineral collecting world.  It is the standard for mounting specimens in display cases or to display bases, or even mounting specimens directly in mineral cabinets.
    Mineral putty is a non greasy, non staining soft putty that adheres excellently to mineral and fossil specimens.  It never hardens, so is easily removable without damaging your specimens, and it will securely hold your pieces in the position you desire for display.  It has lots of other uses as well, including holding other valuable collectables either in display cases, or on display shelves.
    So, after many questions from our customers about where they can get some of this "Mineral Tack", stuff, we decided to start offering it for those of you who are out there looking for it.  This high quality putty is manufactured in Germany by special order.  Unless you are willing to purchase it in large quantities, it can be a bit costly and hard to get.  We typically buy 20 kilograms of this material at a time (about 44 pounds), so we can get a pretty good discount on it and can offer it to our customers at a reasonable price.
    So we are offering packages of approximately 40 grams of mineral putty packaged in plastic wrapping for .99 per package.  We purchase this in large sheet roles weighing 5 kilograms each (about 11 pounds), and then cut the rolls into smaller packs.  We do our best to get them as close to 40 grams as possible, but there is some variability with the width of the putty strips across the long roll so a few of the packs might only weigh in at 38 or 39 grams, while others may be 42 or 44 grams (we tend to try to go heavier on our estimation, but once in awhile fall a little short).  A 40 gram pack of the putty should be enough for mounting between 25 and 50 thumbnail to miniature sized mineral specimens, depending upon the size and weight of the specimens.
    Shipping will be charged at cost based upon the actual package weight, ship-to locality and buyers choice of shipping methods.  PayPal is our preferred method of payment, but we do accept most other common payment options, so if you have a question about our payment policy, just drop us a note.
    HAPPY BIDDING to all! PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR OTHER AUCTIONS AND OUR EBAY STORE!!! We are always happy to combine orders to reduce shipping costs, including winning bids over several weeks if desired
    (but three weeks is about the longest we can go for combining orders without causing problems with eBay)
    , and we NEVER charge a handling fee.
    PLEASE NOTE:
    If you would like to combine orders over several days or weeks, just let us know to hold the order until you are finished bidding, and
    PLEASE DO NOT SUBMIT A PAYMENT
    until you are ready to have us ship the order. eBay wants us to ship out purchases within one business day of receiving payment, so by paying and having us hold the order it damages our eBay rating and can result in additional fees that we have to pay.
