🖼️ Winsor & Newton Artists' Picture Cleaner - 75ml (3221735) Review

Great Price, the only type of turpentine you can buy if you are a serious artist. I have been painting professionally for over 40 years (Tempestportraits.com).

Did a good job eliminating the white spots on my oil painting. The smell was very strong, I had to use a mask. I didn't like using cotton swabs, I found a clean 100% t-shirt was better than cotton. The bottle was very small, I need to buy another one to complete the cleaning. My painting was 24x30.

We used this product on an 18th century oil painting. The bottom half looked stained with something white.

The photos show the difference and we were very pleased with the ease and affordability of restoring the painting to its true colors. Cleaning with a cotton cloth was a real hassle (I used a thick new cloth diaper we had left over from a burp kit :) and I used the whole bottle as the painting is about 28x40.

Has this become my 100 year old 'oil painting' of a talented family member but no there Vinci painting" into a shiny new painting, befitting the work of a professional restorer? no But did he easily and safely remove all those decades of grime and grime and make the painting look MUCH better than it was? YES SIR. Some of the results made me chuckle - in our image (which I've been looking at for almost 70 years), the river flows in the middle. But who would have thought that there was a small…
