| Artist canvas is expensive. Student artists rarely have enough money to discard a canvas every time they make a mistake. This guide gives users a practical and affordable way to recover from the types of mistakes that happen to most people who paint with acrylics. | | | Canvas boards are reusable, so there is no need to throw out a canvas over spilled paint or use of the wrong color. The secret to removing acrylic paint from a canvas lies in isopropyl alcohol (at least 60% solution). The isopropyl alcohol breaks apart and dissolves polymer chains that sit on top of acrylic paint when the paint is dry. It’s more affordable and less toxic to the environment than other types of paint solvents. | | | Following the steps chronologically will result in successfully completing this guide and saving your canvas. |
