I have some old photos in frames and the pictures are stuck to the glass. Is there any way to safely remove the glass without damaging the photo? Please help!

Take your trusty hair dryer to the front of the glass, I found it was slick in removing from old photo books too!

If you try to pull the pic off, it will be ruined. I had the same problem with a 5x7 pic. I removed the glass with the pic still attached, and had it scanned into my computer at home, then printed out copies from that, and placed the 'stuck' original back where it came from. If you don't have a scanner, take it to walmart, or anywhere there is a public photo center.

Archived on 04/24/2009
I have an old photo in a picture frame. The picture got stuck to the glass surface and I would like to get it out. Any suggestions?

Try using warm water with Ivory or liquid Joy, soak for at least 1-2 hours and gently separate the photo from the glass. If possible use a flat bed scanner and make a copy of the original. Before putting a photo behind glass make sure it has a protective coating such as protective spay from the hobby or photo shop (07/20/2005)

If it is irreplaceable take it to a professional photo place. I believe water would damage the photo. I found that my photos stuck because I didn't dry the glass well enough after I cleaned it. (07/21/2005)

Try using a product called "Undo". It's used in scrapbooking to remove/reposition stickers. It's photo safe. Just let the photo dry completely after removing. When used on stickers, you can re-use the sticker after it dries. The product comes with a "lifter" to help lift the photo as you apply the product. (07/22/2005)
