Guide: Remove Objects from Photos Cleanly

Five short tips for a clean result on any photo.

Paint a little past the edges

Cover the whole object and a few pixels around it, its shadow and reflection too. A generous brush gives the AI room to blend the new background in.

Paint a little past the edges

Pick the brush size

Use the small brush for wires and thin poles, the medium one for people and objects, and the large one for a car or a crowd. Undo removes the last stroke.

Remove several things at once

Paint over everything you want gone in one go: three tourists, a bin and a sign come out in the same run for the same 2 credits.

Remove several things at once

Paint again for the last details

If a shadow or an edge is left, press Paint again on the result, brush over what remains and run once more.

Size and file

The clean photo comes back at the size you uploaded, as a PNG. Next step options take it on to the upscaler, the background remover or Image to PSD.
