Author Topic: Shedding on X-Men 3 Dennis Benjamin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1445 From: Denton, MD Registered: Feb 2002 posted 05-27-2006 05:20 PM                        Anyone else have a print of X-Men 3 that is shedding more than normal? The print I have has shed tremendously. I haven't seen it this bad since Schindler's List.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 05-27-2006 07:16 PM                     Nope, no projector cleaning required at all here. Sounds like you've got something scuffing the film in one of your projector/platters.  |  IP: Logged Martin Ubilluz Film Handler Posts: 21 From: boca raton,fl / United states of America Registered: Apr 2006 posted 05-28-2006 01:26 AM                     none at all has to do with your equipment the only prints that shred tremendously are black mylar prints  |  IP: Logged Jack Ondracek Film God Posts: 2348 From: Port Orchard, WA, USA Registered: Oct 2002 posted 05-28-2006 03:10 AM                        Running normally here... no problems.  |  IP: Logged John T.

Our booth clown that worked Friday night scratched it. And it was the first day! But no shedding. I would definitely recommend running Filmguard on it for at least two shows.  |  IP: Logged Micah Linford Film Handler Posts: 1 From: Albuquerque, NM, USA Registered: Jun 2006 posted 06-04-2006 02:09 PM                        I've got six prints in my booth and they're running clean.  |  IP: Logged Alex Cross Film Handler Posts: 34 From: Eccleshill, Brafdord, West Yorkshire, Registered: Dec 2005 posted 06-07-2006 02:48 AM                     Hi, We have one. So bad the other day it caused a build up in the gate. In turn causing loss of focus. Backed off gate tension, been OK since. Alex.  |  IP: Logged
