[PADG:1251] Re: Ballpoint ink on microfilm

[<joangate@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you so much for your help. For those of you who asked for more detail,
the film is polyester, a pos and the ink is on the film.  I think probably
one of our aspiring student artist doodled on the film.  Got to love 'em.
Thanks everyone.   Joan

The microphotographer in our library recommends using either alcohol or a
film cleaner (Kodak is one brand) and a cotton ball.

Can anyone on PADG tell me how to remove ballpoint ink from microfilm?  I
have a positive copy with several frames disfigured with ink.   Joan
