Examples
-
• The next day, open the book and check the hollowback and see if the joint is tight.
-
• Insert it into the hollowback against the spine, making sure it covers the inside of both hinges where it will do the most good.
-
However if your book is going to continue to be opened and closed as it should be, you will have to ADD a small strip or tube of mull or a cheese-cloth like fabric to the inside of the hollowback before you add more adhesive.
