WHY USE LASERS?
Laser cleaning is a valuable addition to the conservator’s toolbox offering a highly selective, reliable and precise method of removing layers of corrosion, pollution, unwanted paint and other surface coatings.
The laser is an extremely controllable alternative to more conventional techniques helping to remove unsightly and damaging layers from the surface of artworks in a wide range of sculptural materials including marble, bronze, ivory and aluminum.
Lasers have been widely and successfully used to clean historic artefacts, sculptures and ancient monuments, while preserving the patina, fine surface detail and important surface coatings.
