I want to brush away color artifacts from a shot of a black and white line drawing. I'm not sure if the artifacts have been introduced by the cross-hatching on the drawing, or by the frame glass covering it. Perhaps a combination of both.

Using both of the above methods, the colour artifacts do disappear. I just want to know if one is better than the other?

Many thanks.

sorry - I tried to delete this but couldn't

Lois,

Thanks for the reply.

The problem is I can't see any difference between the two methods. That's why I posed the question. But, I could be missing something.

As to converting the affected area to greyscale......not a runner. Looks terrible.
