FIXING LOOSE CANVAS
Stand piece of art upright on a hard
surface and place a piece of cloth between
the art and the surface to protect both.
FIXING INDENTATIONS & CREASES
In the corners of the canvas on the back, you will notice two wedges in each corner that
allows you to adjust the tension by slightly tapping on them with a hammer.

Tap down on the stretcher wedges with a hammer where the arrows point. Rotate
canvas to always be tapping downward towards the hard surface. Tap until you see
the frame begin to split further apart. Repeat process until canvas is pulled taut.
On the back of the canvas, rub the piece of
ice directly to the crease for about 30-60
seconds.

Warped frames can be easily fixed by
bending them back.
Let dry for 15-20 minutes and the crease
or indentation should go away. Avoid over
saturating, or canvas may need to dry for a
while longer.
A
Place the art along a table’s edge as shown. Place your hands on the corner that was
coming away from the wall and its opposite corner. Gently push down on the corners
to stretch the canvas diagonal. Hang your art piece on the wall and test. If still coming
away the from wall, repeat steps.
