German-language quarterly "Rundbrief Fotografie" has published an
article on different kinds of UV filter foils for different
purposes by restorer Paul Bernhard EIPPER: "UV-Schutzfolien in Depot
und Ausstellung" in it's issue 12, 1996, pp 4-8, ex planing basic
technical criteria and naming (German) distributors, too. This may
be useful for colleagues, who only can modernize their workshops or
showrooms.
