[BCMA] solidifying water

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Model makers, especially model railroad people, use a solidifying clear liquid plastic for water effects.   You will find it available at BC Shaver & Hobbies at 742 Fort Street in Victoria.   Not cheap but easy and predictable to use for excellent results.   There are other clear liquid casting plastics on the market, but that one is easy to get.

Subject: [BCMA] solidifying water

Dear fellow museum people

I curate the small Greek Heritage Project Museum in Victoria and am setting up a display about the Greek experience with coffee.

I would like to put a glass of water and a cup of Greek coffee on the beautiful brass tray in the collection but don't want any chance of spills. The display will not be in a case so danger lurks.

Can anyone suggest an inexpensive way to solidify liquids? cost is a factor
