This is my process for wet cleaning and pressing a typical bronze age comic book. Honestly this book didn't really even need much cleaning. I would typically perform this process in 3-4 cycles and it will come a little cleaner each time.
Its difficult to discern in the video but the book does look a little cleaner, but nothing to write home about in this particular case.

Hey Rick, after much research a year ago I purchased the same press and love it! Really enjoying your videos, very helpful information. Thanks for sharing! Question for you… How do you manage books with a thicker paper, any differently? As an example, G.I. Joe A Real American Hero #1. Thanks again Rick!

You use the term "Chamfer" board multiple times, you do explain what it is here, thanks.

Hi, it’s a board that is used under a comic book cover when pressing . It has a filleted edge to reduce the appearance of a tell tale pressing line in the cover. See this link: immaculatecomics.com/shop/chamfered-pressing-board/

just straight dry cleaning with the make-up pads (I started using those after watching one of your video's and they are so much easier to use than anything else I have tried for cleaning off any light dust before putting a newer comic in mylar)., a sponge and then absorene (repeat until almost all is off) and finally an eraser takes forever. Is the cleaner you showed the one you sell? If so I would love to get my hands on it, I have some older comics that need that sort of love.

Thanks! Do you have a video or list of all your equipment ad solutions etc?

Sorry, I dont have that list. I have a huge shop with a great many chemicals and pieces of equipment in it. Only a fraction of those are for comic books, and I’ve only shown a small portion of what I use on video. But making that list is a good idea. I’ll consider making it.

Do you leave the book in the press afterwards for a certain amount of time before you take the book out?
@ImmaculateComics

I do. Typically I let it come to ambient temperature then transfer to a cold press for 6-8 hours

Hey Rick, what's in the solution? Can I make some of my own at home? Thanks!

Hi Gary, thanks for asking. You can’t get the solution yourself since I concoct in my lab, myself. I usually make some extra and sell it. I sell enough to make 1L for $20 and enough to make 250 ml for $10. If you want a dispenser and some cleaning pads it’s $7 extra. If interested PayPal me at rickmorgan@hotmail.com

Rick, I have a star wars #42 I need to get signatures off of it.. How much would it cost me for you to do it?
@ImmaculateComics
@ImmaculateComics 3 жыл бұрын
Hi There, I would have to see the book before I would know if it were possible or not. However I would try to remove signatures from your book for free if you like. You would have to accept that 1) I may refuse to work on the book entirely. 2) theres a chance the book might sustain a small amount of damage from the process. right now its about a 15% chance. Meaning that some of the ink surrounding the signature might come off or be a little faded.

That's just a common reprint that was sold in comic bags along with reprints of #2 and #3,. Not "the" 35 cent price variant that's worth a lot of money.
