Unfortunately I have not heard about so that you can restore the natural color. It is not feasible in my opinion.

Advise on the underside to remove thick, Whatman paper papered with foam and no arms and no tie is not necessary to remove the pin. It is only necessary to pierce a hole in the foam at the head of a pin. All my underside removed by this method. The material just as well stay in one piece with careful handling.

Yes, I know :) It Xylophanes chiron nechus (Cramer, [1777]).
But these human body parts carry a reluctance even :) Let the author to apologize. And we are all here for the line of people criticize ......
This might expose himself soon and also from French Guiana

Whose underside? Why is the hand?
The site has the ability to link a photo to the group. For example: underside / top.
And let's remove the collectors' items, without any superfluous detail: human hands / feet, and the like? So in fact it would be better in my opinion :)
