Schmincke Mediums 069 Phoebus A Restoring Medium 60 ml (50069025)

Handling

Phöbus A restoring medium is ready to use, but can be diluted with e.g. oil of turpentine 50024 / 50102 or turpentine substitute 50019.

Common use: Apply medium sparingly with a soft lint-free cloth on a small area of the picture´s surface and rub it in lightly (!) until original brightness is regained. The necessary penetration time depends on the hardness of the colour layers. On principle: as short as possible. Afterwards remove the medium carefully from the surface with oil of turpentine 50024 / 50102 or turpentine substitute 50019. (Attention: Take care with impasto art works: Such surfaces could be damaged mechanically if being rubbed to hard!)

Follow-up treatment with final varnish or picture varnish 50083 / 50065 / 50416 is recommended (Please wait some weeks until the picture layers has been consolidate!)

Please check in advance whether the colour layer has a good binding force and a good adhesion to the substrate. Make sure that no upper-most colour layers are dissolved during cleaning! Always pre-test the product on an area that is not directly visible, e.g. at the edge of the picture in the fold region of the ornamental frame.

We recommend that you have such work performed on valuable paintings by a professional restorer.

Close immediately after use.

Store in a cool and dry place.

Individual pre-tests are required.
