How do I remove glare on glass?

Tue, 11/28/2006 - 15:07 — BigElk

I have a set where there are a bunch of bottles in some of the shots. The bottles are antiques so I can't damage them. Does anyone have suggestions on how to take the glare off the bottles without damaging them? Maybe a spray that dulls but that washes off after Im finished?

Dull

LOL you got it... Use Dulling Spray or Spray Dull... two different brands for the same thing. Comes right off with water.

Spray

Good deal. Practice on a piece of smaller glass first. Don't use it too close or you'll get spots. Light coats are best. I find that using your thumb is best also. Good luck!
