Hi guys, just wondering what is the best method of cleaning film? I have no rewind bench so my only way would be using rewind on my projector. I know I have to use a lint free cloth, any preferences or recommendations in what to use would be great. I do have film cleaner so no problems there.
Many thanks
Nick

Nick, I would suggest looking for a rewinder. Trying to clean on the projector is laborious and lacks the tension to do a really good job.
