Condition
Ashfield Council approached ICS to restore the Haberfield Honour Roll in December 2014. Over the years the wood had been scratched and chipped in various places, the surface finish had become dull and the modern varnish coating had darkened with age, making the text difficult to read. Certain areas had also started to delaminate.
Treatment
- Removing old coating from the panels and the bottom of the frame.
- Building up shellac polish.
- Regilding the names.
- Improving the colour work and finish of the honour board.
