Methods to the solidification of the material were developed and reduce its absorption. -Water, which did not penetrate the MOAI, can not destroy him also.
With the results of their research, the German experts go back to the South Pacific island. The first MOAI are removed from the destructive influence of nature.
The operations on the model: the stone pulp and a foil wrapped, drenched from above with a low-viscosity mineral binders. After a few weeks, the weather-resistant silica gel is formed. Then seal the pores with a water-repellent impregnation - and yet the stone remains breathable and can continue to breathe. The German chemists are prepared to receive approximately three to four hundred MOAI on Easter Island of for posterity.
