<p>[QUOTE="mirana, post: 10513537, member: 79705"]Alcohol is used in cleaning because it very rapidly evaporates so doesn't cause damage by staying moist. It's possible it got trapped and will fade. However, it can remove paint, depending on the type of paint. That's why conservators have so many chemical mixtures for different types. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie86" alt=":sorry:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>You learn a lesson you don't repeat and then you learn to appreciate it despite the faults.</p><p><br /></p><p>And it should be appreciated!
