| I have some 1950's era Napco ceramic(?) figurines that were finished with the "COLD PAINTING" process, and I am not sure how to clean them. I have removed the paint from another old piece by cleaning too aggressively, and want to be careful with these. ANY IDEAS??? Thanks! |

| Ag ood dusting brush....like an artist's paint brush for oil paints. Not sure what cold painting is....but surely cold water with a little drop of shampoo ought not to hurt. Linda |

| I used lukewarm water with a drop of dish soap on a soft sponge and gently swabbed the pieces. I then rinsed them gently and dried them with a soft towel, and they looked great! |

| Cris76: I do Wildfowl Artist Carvings. They are finished with Acryic Paints with a Clear Coat. I use Windex to clean them. What ever you use , try to clean an inconspicious spot and leave it dry, for a test. |
