How do I clean antique papier mache vases?
I have a pair of painted papier mache vases that belonged to my grandparents. I accidentally spilt water on one of them and it took some of the paint off of the picture, so I don't want to clean them with water. They are rather dirty and spotted, though. Is there a safe way of cleaning them or should I just leave them alone?
I have several papier mache pieces and I only dust them. The protective laquer on them may be damaged and using any liquid could further damage them
