EDISON AMBEROL 4 MINUTE CYLINDER cleaning

[fmblizz]

Are EDISON AMBEROL 4 MINUTE CYLINDERs and Edison 2 minute cleaned the same way using Labtone? The cylinders seem very different in their composition so I was not sure. I picked up a batch of 4 min Amberols recently that need to be cleaned. Luckly there doesn't appear to be mold involved.

Thanks in advance

A soft damp cloth and water takes off the haze.

Just be careful cleaning these even with a damp cloth, as the 4 minute Amberols are infamous for being extremely brittle. I once broke one doing just that, sometimes the slightest pressure is too much. I swear that even the difference in temperature from sticking your fingers inside them to transport the cylinder can crack them if your fingers are in there for too long.

I'd be so scared to do this.I wouldn't want to risk it.Wax Amberols are like egg shells! edisonplayer.
