Reasonably safe cleaner for carrier sheet films?
« on: December 07, 2011, 05:14:35 PM »
I'm looking for something to clean off our carrier sheets with so we don't get pin holes from dirty carriers.  Sprayway makes a spray can of stuff that looks like it could work but it looks like pretty nasty stuff.

Anyone have a recommendation?

for cleaning off ecosol ink, we use that spray cleaner you use on dry erase boards. It's tough enough to remove residues and other things plus it's cheap and dries rather quickly, being alcohol based.

Any of that do a good job on that sticky tape residue left on the carriers after a ton of use? Been having films pull off the carriers lately when film carrier combos are stacked. Would be really nice to find something non toxic to remove it.
