Looking for a gentle and non-scratch cleaning solution for metals and sensitive fine-art surfaces? Pre-lim is a widely used product in professional restoration for arms and armor, sculpture, brass and copper exhibition cookware, ceramics, and automobile paintwork. Its formulation is based on blended Neuburg silica chalks in a water/white spirit emulsion, making it safe for normal use.

Pre-lim’s cleaning and burnishing action is achieved with extreme precision using a soft rag and light pressure. After air-drying for a few minutes, the residual chalky deposit can be easily wiped away with a clean rag, leaving surfaces dry and silk-smooth. Protect cleaned surfaces, especially metals, with our glass-clear Renaissance micro-crystalline wax polish for long-lasting and visually-enhancing results.

Pre-lim has an excellent shelf life when stored in its air-tight container at room temperature or colder. However, as is customary in professional restoration, conducting a discreet test is advised to ensure that Pre-lim is suitable for specific projects.
