You mentioned something about using hydroxyl perhaps? What is that ? When and how to use, and the source for purchasing your products ? Thanks

I have a print G Harvey painting that was damaged in a house fire about 20 years ago. Most of the damage is stains and residue from smoke and soot. Do you think I could use this sponge to clean it?

Yes I would try it on a corner and make sure it doesn't cause any damage before doing the entire painting.

This is very dangerous unless you do not care if you ruin the artwork. You should consult an art conservator in your area.

I agree with you that you have to be careful and if the painting is of high value then yes consult a conservator. However it is possible and not difficult to clean many pieces that are in a home without worry of causing damage if you follow the instructions in my video.

Can I get that out of a canvas tent?

@FirehouseEducation Жыл бұрын

It is possible. I would start with HEPA Vacuuming and then wash the tent with a mild degreaser such as Dawn. If you have staining that persists due to the soot then I would try a vinegar mixture (you can google the recipe) like they use on sail boat sails so as to not damage the canvas.

How do you clean a canvas picture that has smoke damage like this one?

@FirehouseEducation 6 жыл бұрын

Use the Chem sponge that I am using here the same way I show in the video. I would also gently vacuum the canvas first to remove loose contaminants first. Here is where you can get the sponges:amzn.to/2O4eEV6

Do you use chem sponge on ceilings that have texture paint. What about popcorn ceilings

@FirehouseEducation 9 жыл бұрын

Lamar Person sometimes yes you c;an use a chem sponge on textured ceilings but on popcorn ceilings you will make a mess if you use a chem sponge. The only way to clean a popcorn ceiling is HEPA vacuuming. If you use a chem sponge you may wind up knocking down a lot of the popcorn. You need to be careful with a popcorn ceiling as it may be hot with asbestos. This can be a health hazard and you may need to have it tested before touching it.
