Oil Painting Cleaning

An oil painting can last forever if taken care of properly. And that is the trick, right? To clean and restore a painting properly and not damage a precious family keepsake by taking shortcuts or using methods unwise and actually dangerous to your portrait. There are many ways not to do this properly and end up paying some professional service an arm and a leg to fix what you have ruined.

There is a need for everyone who has an oil painting to utilize proper chemicals and solutions for cleaning their oil paintings, and removing varnish to restore a portrait to its original glory. Many oil paintings can be destroyed beyond repair by use of soap and water, home remedy solutions, linseed oil, glue remover, or other household cleansers.
