A new customer has asked if I know of anyone to clean an oil painting for them. It's not an old master, just been badly stored and is now covered in dust and dirt.
I called the Guild as I thought they had a register of such people, but they were unable to help.
I have found the institute of Conservation have a list of members but seem to mostly work for museums. http://www.conservationregister.com/
One of their members sells a cleaner which sounds just the job, but I'm reluctant to try this as I'm sure my insurance wouldn't cover damage from this! https://www.fineart-restoration.co.uk/b ... g-cleaner/
Any suggestions? What does anyone else do, if anything?
Thanks Jonathan
