Nanorestore® Cleaning systems are particularly effective in the removal of oily soils and organic coatings without redeposition into the pores of the substrate. They offer performances not achievable with traditional solvents or solvent gels and represent a new platform for conservation of work of arts. Nanostructured cleaning fluids (water-in-oil micro-emulsions, micellar solutions) are substantially based on water, with a drastically reduced solvent content while maintaining cleaning effectiveness.

WHEN ARE THEY USED? The formulations of Nanorestore® Cleaning can be used for the removal of oily soils, grime or (aged) organic coatings from the surface of (porous) works of art, in order to overcome the drawbacks of traditional cleaning methods (i.e. limited control on the cleaning action of neat organic solvents, spreading of the dissolved material, toxicity issues), or when neat organic solvents do not provide satisfactory results.

OK to be used for

• Removal of hydro-soluble dirt, grime or dust from mural paintings and stone artifacts.
• Removal of (aged) coatings, such as acrylic and vinyl synthetic polymers and (aged) natural and synthetic varnishes from mural paintings and stone artifacts.
• Removal of apolar material, such as wax, or oily soils from mural paintings.
• Can be combined with Nanorestore® Gels (see data sheet.
