There are some types of damage that push a painting to the brink and challenge the conservator to find a way of saving the piece.  Among the most impactful and catastrophic forces is fire.  It takes no quarter and spares no painting.  But for a piece that has not been thoroughly consumed by fire there is hope... and that is the survivor.

Would it be profitable for an auction house to buy art like this (although perhaps not this extreme) that had been damaged and written-off by others, then pay for your services in restoration, then re-sell? Or does the cost of handling and restoration exceed the possible value of the art most of the time?

If the initial adhesive comes off later is there a reason why you don't just spray the whole thing lightly and then use the removal method on the surface after?
