        Hello everyone, I’m new to oils and I have a problem. I am in the process of painting a commissioned painting. In between, I moved. In packing up, my good intentioned hubby wrapped my painting in a cover to protect it. I didn’t say anything to him but my painting came out looking like a fur coat. I pulled off as much as I could but I feel it may be ruined and I need to start over. Is there something I can use to wipe on it to remove a layer safely? Thank you so much. I feel like cryiny. I worked on this for a couple months.
