I have a wrap problem that will likely get worse if left. I was lucky enough to acquire a 2pc Ludwig transition in oyster pink! It had some tan paint or something applied ( or spilled?) over them. Most of that had been cleaned off when I got them. Unfortunately, I think a solvent was used as there is crazing and splits in the wrap. (The inside of the drum had some brownish stains or streaks. Possibly same fluid that damaged wrap.)

I believe the spider web cracks, etc. will worsen over time if not sealed. I don't think I should spray over the entire wrap with anything to do this. I propose using artist's acrylic medium in the cracks. It's like elmer's glue, but better. I've used it in various applications; it will bond while drying clear. I won't tint it. I could fill a divot, squeeze some under wrap cracks , wipping excess with damp cloth. I'm sure it can do the job.

This may lessen the value, but I'll be dead when that happens. (Many years from now, I hope...) Please weigh in with opinions and suggestions. Thanks.
