Cleaning Mylar 1 1

[Jim Stienbarger]

Anyone got any tips for cleaning fingerprints and tape residue off mylar comic bags?

[MAR1979]

WD40 will take care of adhesive but if even the residue touches paper it will stain.  I recommend new mylars.

99% isopropyl (70% works well too) using a lens cleaning towel for fingerprints

I've tried ethanol, and it seemed to work, but I'll wait for a professional to comment on that one.

Yes.

Use a piece of tape to pull the old adhesive off. Naptha for stubborn adhesive removal.

No way!

Only toilet paper.
