The contaminated objects should be worked with light pressure on a discreet area first, before applying the cleaning process on to larger areas. As an area of the sponge becomes embedded with contaminants, simply choose a clean surface of the sponge and continue cleaning. The use of smoke sponges as a material for cleaning the canvas of paintings is mentioned in the international reference bibliography [ 25], in professional workshops around the world [ 45, 46, 47], in worldwide reference institutions [ 48, 49, 50] and in academic documents [ 51, 52].Restauración de lienzos del altar mayor de la colegiata de los Santos Justo y Pastor. 2006. https://www.juntadeandalucia.es/export/drupaljda/CUADROS_BOCANEGRA_SAN_JUSTO_GRANADA_comprimido_1_0.pdf.

In: Proceedings from the Modern Paints Uncovered Symposium, Los Angeles: Getty Conservation Institute; 2007:169. To evaluate changes in the canvas topography, degree of cleaning and the residues of particles remaining on the support, optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM–EDX), confocal laser microscopy (CLM) and spectrophotometry were used. These techniques facilitate useful information in the evaluation of mechanical cleaning methods such as possible texture changes, fibre alteration, colour variation, presence of dirt or cleaning products residues. This guide will take you through the steps to improve smoke damage to walls, ceilings and furniture. It will cover:

Apply saddle soap or leather soap to a clean cloth and wipe the leather with it. Follow the instructions on the bottle for best results.Finally, samples cleaned with cellulose are the ones that show the greatest increases in lightness (L* D65), thus confirming its effectiveness as a cleaning agent. Looking for the best paint to cover smoke damage? Choose a self-priming paint which provides a good level of coverage.

It is possible to paint over smoke-damaged walls. However, you shouldn’t apply paint straight over smoke stains, as doing so won’t cover them up. Start by removing stains with a dry cleaning sponge, followed by a wet cleaning method. Then, apply a durable primer to the walls to prevent the stains from showing through.

Prochem Dry Chem Sponge

Before cleaning smoke damage on walls and ceilings, remove any furniture from the room. Then, vacuum any soot particles on the floor and use the brush and hose attachments on your vacuum cleaner to remove particles from the walls and ceilings. After that, lay a plastic sheet on the floor for protection. Use a blend of two cups of warm water and 12 drops of colorless liquid dish soap to remove the soot stain gently. To avoid scratching the paint when cleaning smoke stains off the ceiling, work systematically with a soft sponge or cloth from one side of the soot deposit to the other. Clean your fabric regularly to prevent spreading soot particles.
