Artist canvas is expensive. No artist wants to discard a canvas every time they make a mistake. This guide gives users a practical and affordable way to recover from the types of mistakes that happen to most people who paint with acrylics.
Artist canvases are reusable, so there is no need to throw one out over spilled paint or use of the wrong color. The secret to removing acrylic paint from a canvas lies in isopropyl alcohol (at least 60% solution). The isopropyl alcohol breaks apart and dissolves polymer chains that sit on top of acrylic paint when the paint is dry. It’s more affordable and less toxic to the environment than other types of paint solvents.
Following the steps chronologically will result in successfully completing this guide and saving your canvas.
Please take caution when using isopropyl alcohol.
- Isopropyl alcohol is extremely flammable. Do not use near an open flame.
- Work in a well-ventilated area and do not inhale fumes.
- Wear disposable gloves to protect your hands.

DID NOT WORKKK!!! do not try does not work for a whole canvas or acrylic paint it will just make your house smell like alcohol
I used acrylic on canvas to paint a portrait. When finished, I decided to change the color of the eyes, Using a small, old brush, I gently applied alcohol & blotted off the original color. I came off after repeating a few times. This technique saved an otherwise good painting.I don't think I'd have the patience to do a large area.
