hi Myron, I bought mine on line from film-tech.com. The phone # on the box: (817)238-8421. It's shipped from momentcatcher productions in Fort Worth Texas. A very good product [Smile]

Is there anyone out there that
believes that FilmGuard and
WD40 are the same product?

If there is anyone out there that believes that then they must be phenomenally stupid because it is impossible to get a US government patent on an existing product. Use your head and think about it for a minute. [Roll Eyes]

Hi Michael there is absolutely no comparrison.
I treated a 16mm film with WD40 a 2000 feet in the garden on a still day wearing gloves and ended up ill for weeks from the smell, no kidding though I`ll admit I am a little intolerant of certain solvents.
Filmgaurd from what I have exerianced just myself is the least toxic and best film treatment on the market and thats not because Brads on here, some are very nasty and best kept well away from and all should really be done outside or in very well ventilated room as we all react differently to chemicals.
Best Mark.
PS a bit OTT possibly Brad anyone can be mistaken about something. Theres plenty of support for the product on here.
