Thanks, Rick! Been doing it on my own but it's always great to have confirmation from the expert!

I wanted to share my observations on the Immacuclean solution. I’ve used it on several eras of paper at this point with varied results. One commonality is that it does do a good job at getting dirt off the covers. I use a 3.5% solution with cotton round followed by 1 wipe of Di-ionized water, let it dry by hanging off a ledge (usually I am only needing to clean back covers as fronts I do manually). Then a second wipe with DI water and a second dry before Pressing. 10 Silver age Tales of Suspense (1967) issues lost some cover luster. They still look good but comparing to identical issues I dry cleaned, you can see a loss of gloss. Also, there is a change in the way the page feels - just slightly rougher or drier similar to running your finger along a piece of chalk. Bronze age issues came out great. I did a half dozen DC’s from 1971 then blew through 12 issues from 1977 in no time and they all came out looking great. No change in luster or feel. However, 2 Tomb of Dracula Evel Kneivel covers (issues 16 and 17) had different results. One was still glossy, the other slightly less so, like the 60’s issues mentioned above. I tried it on a 2013 Avengers mostly white cover and interestingly enough it ended up similar to the 1967 issues with a nice white color but a loss in gloss and tactile feel. Almost like the Alkalinity changed? Anyway, I gotta give the thumbs up for the most part. As is often said “Practice on junk books!” Just sometimes hard to find old junk books to practice on! And once again a shout out for the chamfered boards. They are awesome on every era I’ve tried them on. Thanks!

I saw someone else use a blue LED light to help with that yellowing. Love seeing the results of your projects. I plan to pick some up when I get brave enough to start cleaning, and when I actually get a press.

Just received my package, cant wait to get started. Thank you

Very cool. Really learning a lot from you. Thanks again!

Love how comic guys always love the smell of old comic books.

I placed my order for the cleaning kit can't wait to try this stuff out thanks

is this the formila for washing out all the reds? haha dude you are easily my new favorite youtuber i love it!

Nice video, I use 6mil for my stronger & 3mil for my regular strength. I still do a rub after with just DW to guarantee no residue is left over on the surface of the Comic, clean, clean & more clean is my motto. You are using more pressure then I am but I like the results at whatever pressure.

TY For all your videos ... btw I am wondering ..What is that spot on the H in Hulk after clean/press?

I made up a medium-strength one.. kind of surprised how strong it is it will even take the colour off with very very limited effort.. and I usually have to go back and rinse with distilled water... but definitely removes a lot of dirt.. but also takes the gloss off the page

for those that have trouble with metric units of measure 190 mililitres is about 6 fluid ounces and 3ml is just over a half teaspoon, so if you mix a half teaspoon of immaculaclean concentrate with 6 ounces of water, your solution will be about right.

I got it but haven't used it yet. I have a stack of star wars with white letters on the cover that are gonna get a wipe down. Can't wait

I love my immacuclean on older books pre 2000's i took the gloss right off a new book and even on older books yes yellows and reds are touchy i did an ASM #8 yesterday it has 2 white streaks on it now but the whole dang cover is basically yellow and i knew it was going to be a gamble using the solution but it was filthy so two faint white streaks are better than dirty all over besides it was for my PC so i'm not too concerned saves a ton of time not having to use erasers and magic erasers and lord knows i've taken off all colors easier with those getting too over zealous and being in a hurry.. but as much as i love immacuclean those boards to press out spine ticks are a godsend i'll buy your products for life!

Rick, per your written instructions "When first learning, it is recommended to use one bottle per 1000ml (35g/l or 3.5%). In a 200ml bottle use 7-10ml of ImmacuClean Concentrate tp 190-193ml of water and mix well." Read it yesterday and made my mix. Just saw this video and you mention 3ml to 190. Which is right? Thanks much!

Hi Rick , just a simple question. If I dilute and make a full liter of solution will the product be stable for an extended period of time (a year or more)? Or will it degrade?

What would be used to remove foxing? Looking for a video in case you already posted.

Can you pretty much go right into the press after cleaning or should you allow the book to air dry for a period of time?

Hi Rick, would it be alright to steam the entire book with DI after Immacucleaning the covers and before pressing?

Awe man I'm sorry I should have read the comments first! Will let you know how my first test comes out!

Where can I find what’s it call magiclean and long desk lights?

Hello Rick- how do I go about obtaining your product(immacuclean)? I live in your area

Hey Rick, do you ever see ink completely come off with just distilled water. 99% of time i have no damage from wet cleaning but every once in while the ink comes right off leaving a streak of missing ink. This tends to happen mostly on silver age books. I wonder if some previous activity may have destabilized the ink or something. I’d love to send you some photos of examples.

Once I open the Immacuclean does my 1 year time to use start? If I refrigerate how long will the source liquid last. Also how long can the mix with water last in that pump bottle at room temp or refrigerated?

Definitely appreciate the mathematical formulas at the beginning of your video. But as a customer it would be more helpful to start A to B and forget all the other stuff. So from what I got out of the video was 3ml of IC and 190ml of water to produce a regular solution to use. I personally was unsure of the mixture from the instructions provided in the kit. So to make sure...its 3ml of IC to 190ml of water for a regular mixture?

Do you use erasers on the book before you use the solution to clean it?

What E=MC2?

Still funny when he says magic juice lol ok so would be easy just say 4 oz of distill water and 1 mil of solution , to many numbers .

so how much immacuclean per 100ml?

I appreciate this but do you need to write it by hand? I don't understand your handwriting 😆😆😆😆😆

This guy is the Walter White of comic book cleaning

E = mc2..... I just use oxyclean from the dollar tree 🤣
