Reintroduction of paint loss. The classical theory of restoration of paintings has necessarily involved only minimal intervention. This is done to retain the integrity of the aged painting or art object and to avoid further damage. However, in other more contemporary cases, such as for collectibles or family heirlooms, some clients prefer the "invisible" art restoration technique which will return the item to “like new” condition. We also perform this type of restoration if requested. The products used to conceal cracks for this technique can be easily removed without causing additional stress to the artifact.
