Abstract

In the field of South American textile conservation, the lack of courses in Spanish and the difficulty of connecting with other professionals in the international community are challenges faced in the attempt to update knowledge within the area. With this premise, the Comité Nacional de Conservación Textil (CNCT, National Textile Conservation Committee)—an institution that brings together professionals related to the conservation and investigation of the textile heritage of Chile and other countries of the Southern Cone—developed the initiative to organize a course on textile stain removal techniques with innovative application methods. This review presents the experience of the participants on such a course, titled Disolver o remover para resolver. Curso virtual de conservación sobre la limpieza localizada en textiles (Dissolve or Remove to Resolve. Virtual Conservation Course on Localized Cleaning on Textiles).
