After reading all the suggestions carefully looked at the slides that
were dirty and found that the dirt on most of them was on the
non-emulsion side
And as someone suggested I selected a few of the less valuable slides
and experimented a bit. I think I can gently clean most of them with
distilled water and a q-tip, blotting with a soft tissue to remove the
water. A gentle puff of air got rid of any lint.
The next step is to get my Canon FS-2710 film scanner going again. I
found that I can'y get it going under XP but being a pack rat first and
a retired computer tech second I was able resurrect an older machine and
load W2K on to it. Vuescan needs some Canon files to work.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
Bob
