Abstract

item.page.abstract.en
The article discusses the Modular Cleaning Program, an aqueous system for cleaning painted surfaces. The first part presents basic theoretical concepts, the method’s workflow, and its potential applications. The second part describes the current practice of using MCP at the Faculty of Conservation and Restoration of Works of Art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków, showing six conservation projects conducted as part of master’s theses in the years 2022/2023. These projects focused on the conservation and restoration of oil and tempera paintings on wood and canvas, wooden and stone sculptures, and contemporary art. Each case study describes the cleaned paint layer and types of removed materials, presents a series of cleaning tests, and presents the results. In the summary, conclusions regarding the application of the system were gathered.
