I have lots of experience with relined canvas works both pro and amateur and IMO there is no way the piece would become transparent. What we have here is the home improvement/fixxy-uppy/find-a-frame/reduce size of painting to fit and get it up on eBay methodology. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jimlad:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":D" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
