glued with it... I have several pieces of painted wood that I adhered photos to with spray adhesive. The photos have been attached to the wood for about 3 years. I no longer have the paint that I used, although, I could maybe have it color matched. I would like to use the same piece of wood, if possible, and just replace the photo. Do you think it would be possible to remove the photos, or should I just make new wood pieces? You can see the set up in the top, left photo...  |

No actual experience but I'd be worried the photos would just rip. Have you tried seeing if you can gently lift one of the edges and see if it starts to come away? Or I guess the other option is just stick another photo on top?

How much were the wood pieces? Can you use the back?
I think that you could use a paint stripper to remove the photos and paint and just start over. Or put one photo on top of the other. Or scrape off the old photo and see if you can salvage the paint on edges of the wood. But in reality, I'd probably just start over.

I'll probably just start over. basket1lady, the blocks were super cheap. The photos are just copies, so I'm okay if they don't come off perfectly. Matching the paint is what I'm most worried about. I did think about just putting the new photo over top the old ones, but, I wonder if it would look thicker than the others, if I don't change them all out. |

At worst, you'll be out less than $2 for a wasted print. At best, problem solved and it won't cost you any more. |
