Grease Pencils
A grease pencil — china marker is the simplest way to mark
workprint or mag film. The grease can be removed with a
cloth dampened with film cleaner. Use sparingly and clean
the film or grease will accumulate on guides, gates, etc.

Marking Pen
An alternate, cleaner, and, unfortunately, permanent
marker is the Sharpie-type marking pen. Marks either emul-
sion or base of both acetate and polyester films, including
fullcoat.

Vis-A-Vis Acetate Markers
These sharp-point markers are especially formulated to wash
off an acetate surface. Film cleaner will remove them from
the base side of film. They are permanent on the emulsion
side (water removes the mark but mars the emulsion).

Cue Punch
This punch puts a 1/16" hole in a frame of fullcoat or
picture film to indicate corresponding frames for "projec-
tion sync". A punched hole in fullcoat magnetic film is the
recommended method for producing flash frames for use
with the Super8 Sound PhotoStart.

Beep Tapes
These bloop tones or beep tapes are 1000Hz prerecorded
tones on magnetic tape with a pressure sensitive backing. A
short segment should be placed on the sound frame that cor-
responds to the frame "2" in the SMPTE Universal Leader.
See the Film, Fullcoat, Etc. section of the Super8 Sound
Catalog for a description of sync leaders.

Film Cement
Most cement splicers can use any brand film cement
(
Eumig's Chemo Splicer claims to be an exception). We
carry Kodak Film Cement in 1/2 ounce bottles and 16
ounce cans. You should empty the small bottle periodically
and refill with fresh cement. Keep both containers capped
tightly when not in use.

Film Cleaner
Super 8 emulsions are tough and resistant to scratches, but
frequent cleaning, with lubrication, is the best way to keep
fil ms dust and scratch free. It also helps keep the projector
gate and film path clean and lubricated. Use a soft lint-free
cloth or film-wipe dampened with cleaner, and squeeze
gently on the film as you wind. Wind slowly to allow the
cleaner to evaporate before it winds on to the reel, and
change the spot on the cloth often to avoid scratches from
dust particles.
