From my own experiences Will, if your films are scratch free (base scratches), it needn't be applied often at all as one thorough clean suffices, but for someone like me with an extremely critical eye so far as commercial prints are concerned, up until now I have it at the ready for any given moment to ensure the prints can be projected in their most pristine condition.
It works for me anyhow, otherwise I may have totally gone digital by now sadly.
Glad I haven't and glad therefore I discovered the benefits of FG and other things exactly when I did.
When I came back to the hobby initially, I was only dipping my toe in the water by re living prints such as Marathon Man, Grease, Carrie & Dressed To Kill, now i am sat on a fairly large collection of LPP or Agfa low fade prints!
If it wasn't for the two variables I speak of, none of this would ever have materialized. Therefore I am eternally grateful to all of the factors that brought this sheer huge amount of pleasure and lifelong ambition to fruition without all of those nasty unpleasantries I associated this hobby with in the past.
Super 8mm Film Collecting,really can be relatively, hassle free I have learned!
