How to reuse an oil canvas painting for a new acrylic painting the safe way. How to reuse and old canvas without removing any paint or covering up the old painting. I'm trying to test out all the ways to reuse an old canvas for a new painting. This time we're testing a method you can use even if you don't know which medium the old painting was made with. Watch till the end to see, if the old painting stayed intact and whether it shows through the new one!

I get questions on my previous old canvas reusing videos about how to scrape off thick paint without a sandpaper or can you paint over an old painting if it was an oil painting? This video is an answer to those questions. It doesn't matter which medium the old painting was painted with. You don't need sandpaper. You can still use this method. But this isn't necessarily easier...
