So, I was reframing a friend's portrait tonight, and I notice a few small specks in the black field. I attempted to remove them by dabbing with a grey kneadable eraser, however as you can see it left a mark. I have done this successfully so many times on screenprints that I didn't stop to think that maybe I shouldn't for a giclee.

Anybody have any advice to make this less noticable? I'm not going to try to hide it from him, but I'm hoping I can do something to make it better.

Thanks in advance. :pint:

:D That's Plan B. Just fired off an e-mail to Static Medium as well, I guess if anyone would know they would.

Reach out to Poster Mountain and see what they say. Not sure how difficult it will be for giclee.
