The PTR film cleaning rollers sold by FPC are made from pure polyurethane, and not recycled CineMuck. Must be a different brand. http://www.fpcfilm.com/US/en/motion/FPC/fpc/ptr_main.html ------------------ John P.

Isn't that how the first stadium seating was invented? They just kept moving the chairs to the top of the heap.  |  IP: Logged
