FAQ

Can it colorize black-and-white photos?

Yes. You can ask the AI to colorize a black-and-white image while also cleaning up damage and improving clarity.

Can it fix torn or badly damaged photos?

It works best for light-to-moderate damage such as scratches, dust, faded areas, and small missing sections. Severe physical damage may still need manual retouching after the AI pass.

How is this different from image enhancement?

Enhancement improves sharpness, contrast, and clarity on modern photos. Restoration is meant for older photos that need repair, cleanup, colorization, and recovery of aged details.

Should I restore first or upscale first?

Usually restore first, then upscale. Repairing scratches and faded detail before enlarging gives cleaner final results.
