If you have a painting that is spray mounted, you will need to take special care when removing it. Spray mounted paintings are usually made with acrylic paint, which can be difficult to remove without damaging the surface underneath.
There are a few different methods you can try to remove a spray mounted painting:
1. Use a putty knife or other sharp tool to gently scrape the painting off of the surface. Be careful not to scratch or damage the surface underneath.
2. Use a heat gun to carefully heat the painting and loosen the adhesive. Be careful not to damage the painting with the heat.
3. Use a solvent such as acetone or alcohol to dissolve the adhesive. Be careful not to damage the painting with the solvent.
4. If all else fails, you may need to sand the painting off of the surface. Be sure to use a fine grit sandpaper so you don’t damage the surface underneath.
Once you have removed the painting, you can then clean the surface with a mild soap and water solution.
