PixGrid Colorize Photo is a browser tool for restoring color to black-and-white or badly faded photographs, including skin, hair, and clothing. Restore Color applies color in one step without extra sliders. PixGrid recommends repairing scratched or dusty prints with Fix Old Photo before colorizing. It says sharp scans work better than dim or crooked phone photos and advises checking faces before printing. Each black-and-white colorization uses 2 AI credits.
