[Historic Cemeteries]

I assume you mean for marker cleaning. All can be found online. Photo-Flo can be found at camera shops that sell film processing supplies.

In the long run, the commission recommends using water only, as the long term effects of these chemicals is not fully determined and water works very well in most cases.

Historic Cemeteries Commission
releases publications on three topics

The Oregon Commission on Historic Cemeteries released today three new publications related to photography, funerary folk art and development around historic cemeteries.

The publications include two position papers:
     -- "Recommendations Concerning Development Around Historic Cemeteries" is a summary of best practices summary to consider for the preservation of historic cemeteries with construction or land disturbance occurring nearby.
     -- "Filming and Photography in Historic Cemeteries" outlines recommendations for cemetery managers in establishing rules and ethical practices for photographers.

The new Heritage Bulletin discusses "Funerary Folk Art and the Concrete Alternative."  It details various "non-traditional" marker materials and provides instruction for creating a long-lasting concrete marker.

The Historic Cemeteries Commission has released other position papers<http://www.oregon.gov/OPRD/HCD/OCHC/OCHC_Tech_Support_.shtml> and Heritage Bulletins<http://www.oregon.gov/OPRD/HCD/OCHC/OCHC_Tech_Support_.shtml> for the care and preservation of Oregon's historic cemeteries. The commission also offers annual marker repair trainings and grants<http://www.oregon.gov/oprd/HCD/FINASST/Pages/grants.aspx> for cemetery project.
