Prynhawn da (Good Afternoon) I have been bequeathed a very large oil painting by a well known Filipino Artist. I have seen a similar, by same artist, that sold in auction for $22,000. I know that it was painted in the mid 50’s and is filthy; mostly nicotine staining. Thank you very much for this enlightening video. When I have a few months or so spare, I shall give it a bash. Is it absolutely necessary to varnish the painting? I don’t recall it ever being varnished. Diolch yn fawr (thank you very much).

Dude. One cup of water, add one teaspoon of household ammonia - (adjust the strength as needed - TEST a corner first, and be careful of the browns and greens - they seem the most fragile pigments…) Soft bristle small paintbrush - and good quality paper towels to wipe up with. Small areas - light agitation with the brush… Cleans nicotine, removes yellowed varnish - and you will never go back to fiddling around with swabs and ready-made products. Varnish carefully when completely cleaned.

Thank you for the demonstration and helpful product information. I just have to comment on your closing remark that "love is love." That is just not true. There are different types of love: friendship, eros, affection and charity. Friendship is different from the love expressed in a romance which is different from the love we may have for our pets (affection) or relatives which is different from the charitable love we express toward the less fortunate. As all human beings are created in the image of God and God revealed Himself in Christ as the God-Man, one with the Father and the Holy Spirit in a male trinity. There cannot be any impurity or erotic love between them. Therefore, an erotic expression of love between same sex individuals distorts the Image of the Trinity because God is holy and pure. Only in Christ does a man find his true self fulfilled and needs met. So much to consider here. Two recommended books: "Pursuing Sexual Wholeness" by Andrew Comiskey and C. S. Lewis "The Four Loves". Again, thank you for your video. I have an oil painting that looks yellowed, so I am thinking I should try cleaning it first with the Cotton Cleaner, but then hoping you have covered how to remove old varnish if that is the culprit.

Hello, I have many oil paintings from a grandparent who has passed, Would you have any suggestions on what to do with them? I have many hanging in my house but there are just too many to keep. They do need some TLC which is why I am watching the video but they are beautiful works of art that I would hate to see continue to sit in an attic (which is where most have been).
