Overspray on an oil painting, can it be removed without damaging the painting ?

a paintbrush with a white water base craft paint was waved and my oil painting was spotted. i am hoping there is a product available to remove them. instead of having some professional artist touch up painting which will probably effect the worth of the painting.Overspray on an oil painting, can it be removed without damaging the painting ?
You pretty much answered your own question. Why don't you just do the touch up?Overspray on an oil painting, can it be removed without damaging the painting ?
It's touchy, but you might get away with it. Winsor and Newton makes a brush cleaner that will take off acrylic, which is what craft paint is. With a que tip and a lot of patience you might get away with it. If you mess up you can still have it touched up. How much is the painting worth? Is it worth taking the chance? Careful! This stuff will remove oils too. It's great for restoring trashed brushes.
If it is acrylic paint, it's not going to bind permanently to the oil.





Even though it's dry (therefore no longer water-soluble) you can still loosen up the acrylic film with water. The Q-tips suggested above are probably the best instrument. Those spots will lift off eventually.





And seriously, if the painting is valuable enough to worry about the worth of it being affected, you really need to relocate arts %26amp; crafts activites to another part of your home. Because stuff happens.
Cotton swabs and hot water are your best shot. Take your time and just roll the swabs over the spots. The oil painting can handle the water.





Good luck
