    Stain Removal

    Hi All,

    I'm looking for some advice. I'm restoring an old photo with a stain and I can't seem to get very satisfactory results trying to remove it. I've tried adjustment layers, colour replacement, colour/hue/sat/lightness matching, object replacement... but I can't make it look any good.

    I think I need to reduced the red/magenta in the stained area but I'm not sure how to do that.

          Ah - that's a Photoshop thing I guess? I should have mentioned I only have Paint Shop Pro...

                    This photo taken in 1941 of my mother and my grandmother.
                    It has a few ink stains on it and what appears to be a tape mark across the centre.
                    I'm new to restoration and would appreciate any help thanks ...

                    Hi all - this is my first time here! Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. I am restoring a 1940 photograph scanned at 1200 DPI. I used levels to correct black to white tones and removed much of the scratches etc. As you can see in the attached, the shirt of the lady on the left is somewhat stained....

                    Greetings!! I've been a member for some time and have learned quite a lot from the 'family'. I am, however, stymied at the procedures described in prior posts on how to remove stains from images. There are obvious stains on the photo especially over the woman's face. (Please see attached). I would...

                    by paulus
                    Hi

                    I'm a newbie but I've been lurking for several months reading threads, tutorials and stuff.

                    I've stuck my big toe in the water and started doing restorations for OPR but I'm keen to also work on my own photos.

                    I'm stuck on the photo attached - originally...
