409 is your friend, as long as you keep it away from bakelite and other phenolics.
Rust is a problem. Where is the rust? Is it on the gate or just on stuff that doesn't touch the film? A rust stabilizer might be fine if you don't want to polish it all out, on noncritical parts that aren't touching the film. The gate is a pain though, since it's fairly high precision to keep everything sandwiched together without scratching (and if it's one of those TV station newsroom printers it's likely not so precise in the first place so you need all you can get). --scott _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
