I know this is a mineral forum, but I thought I would ask.

I found some fossilized nautilus pieces and their surface is white and it is rubbing off.

My question is, does anyone 'seal' their fossils? If so, what do you use?

Or should I just leave them alone?

Thank you.

Right, this is a forum for minerals, so I locked this thread. Sorry for it, I'm sure you can find some other Forum of fossils.
