Help cleaning and restoring an antique Picture Frame?
A family heirloom painting has found it's way into my hands, but the paint on the frame is in sad condition. I am wanting to at least clean it up without removing any of the flaking paint. The problem is that it wasnt well cared for the last several years, so there is a build up in the carved crevices. Also part of the carved decoration is aged to the point that it is looking more like porous driftwood than anything. Any advice on working with this?
first remove the painting/ portrait.... if its just dirt than lightly use oil soap /H2o using a paint brush , DO NOT SOAK IT / Damp it then sun dry prior to replacing center!
Removing the paint??? Try paint remover/ goof off/ fine sand paper or fine steal wool.
But is it all that bad???.........Its a family thing with some character
