It has been tried and suggested that using white wonderbread can clean dirt off covers. The main way to use it is to roll up a slice into a doughy ball and gently rub off the dirt (use on white areas only).

 

I would suggest using a white art eraser instead if you were going to do this, as you woud get a better result and would have no oily residue left from the bread.

Is it not greasy though?

 

Anyway, what is this 'Wonderbread'. I've always heard it mentioned in US TV shows and comics.

 

::googles::

 

OK, looks like bog-standard white bread. Is it? What's the UK equivalent for comic restoration? Mother's Pride? lol

 

We always get brown, seeded, malted, oaty stuff - like vertical muesli. Don't think it would work well on comics...

White Art Eraser..Works fantastic!!

Work it very slowly and rub towards the edges. Stay away from the colored areas as it will smudge the inks.

I tried that once and lost gloss. It was very evident. Did you loose any gloss when you tried this?

Exactly! A light touch is needed as well as keeping the eraser clean.

After using the eraser over and over it can get dirty and smooth/shiny.

I simply rub the dirty end of the art eraser on my jeans to clean the end,

this also gives a rougher nap to the eraser and makes it easier to pick up any dirt with less pressure.

Not rocket science, but it works. (thumbs u
