It takes only a few minutes to remove fingerprints from a photo.
Glossy photo prints make photography and picture taking worthwhile, but sometimes it is forgotten handle photos without getting fingerprints all over them. Whether you're dealing with your own or someone else's moist fingers, you'll want to get rid of the fingerprints in order to preserve the quality of the photo. Fortunately, there's a surefire way to do this and it doesn't require photography expertise.
Instructions
1. Lay the photo flat on the palm of the hand that you do not write with. If the photo is too unbalanced on your palm, place on a flat, smooth surface.
2. Take a look at the fingerprints to assess the damage. If there is any residue on the photo as a result of greasy or sticky fingers, grab a moist towelette that is made for cleaning glass lenses or computer screens. If there are only fingerprints and no residue, get a 100% cotton cloth to use for cleaning.
3. Gently wipe fingerprints away using the towelette first, if it is needed. Then, wipe the picture using the cotton cloth.
