Cleaning of stone monuments
Original language description
The course introduced the issues of stone cleaning in terms of philosophy, restoration ethics, and conceptual approach. It also described the main types of dirt, its sources, and mechanisms of deposition on the surface of stone depending on the exposure of the object and the type of material. Participants were introduced to current cleaning methods, their principles, and the possibilities and limits of their use, including the potential risks associated with cleaning. They learned about the methods of objective assessment of the cleaning process and the outcome.The course combined theoretical lectures and practical demonstrations of cleaning methods (different types of laser cleaning, microabrasive methods, chemical cleaning, systems using water or steam, etc.) and evaluation of cleaning tests (in situ microscopy, electron microscopy, microscopy of samples, water absorption measurements, etc.). The presented information was based on the long-term research of both lecturers in the field of stone restoration and cleaning technology, as well as related materials.
