How to Clean Plastic or Glass Covering Artwork

Table of Contents:
  1. You Will Need
  2. Steps to Clean the Glass
  3. Additional Tips and Advice

Kathy asked: How do I safely clean the “glass” that is plastic over a piece of artwork I inherited? I have a huge, Erte seriograph that I inherited, and I need to clean the plastic that is covering the artwork. It is not glass, but a form of plastic. I think the frame is also a plastic, as far as I can tell. I do not think I can use Windex. Thank you.

To clean and polish the protective covering over your artwork, you can’t beat the professional results this method provides.

You Will Need:

  • Brillianize Plastic and Glass Cleaner and Polish Kit
  • Safety glasses

Steps to Clean the Glass:

  1. Lay the artwork down on a flat surface if possible to reduce the risk of runs. This also helps to keep moisture away from your artwork.
  2. This product should be kept away from eyes. Wear safety glasses when appropriate.
  3. Spray Brillianize directly onto the glass or plastic covering. You only need a light mist covering the area. For large pieces of art, work in small sections.
  4. Use a microfiber cloth (included in kit referenced above) to clean and polish the surface to a deep shine.
  5. Ensure the moisture is completely gone before moving to the next section.
  6. For large pieces, repeat the above steps until the entire covering is clean.
  7. If there is a large amount of surface debris, you may need to repeat the cleaning process.

Additional Tips and Advice

  • Your newly cleaned glass or plastic will be fingerprint resistant and anti-static to help reduce dust for long lasting, professional-quality results.
  • Brillianize is safe for Lucite, Plexiglas, Lexan, acrylic, Acrylite and all plastic or glass surfaces.

I'm a stay-at-home mom who used to run a small housecleaning business. These days I consider myself more or a mad cleaning-scientist. I do most of the testing for our articles - as well as helping Mark & Melanie write them.
