Wheel of fortune - before and after (update to last post)
First thing first wanted to say thanks to everyone that responded to me with help it helped a lot!
I tried a bunch of different things u guys responded with on an old white border plains and seen that theyre all good.
But heres my thoughts and advice from my experience w this and what u guys said, hopefully this can help someone
- i used a glasses cleaner it was isopropyl alcohol based as u guys recommended
- an eraser
- baby wipes
- magic eraser and microfiber
Heres my thoughts: the eraser id say wiped the dirt off best but I noticed a little late thank god didnt use it much on the wof that it did little micro tears and would leave some paper fibres stranded and if I continued wouldved damaged the card i say use this method on a card thats full of grime but isnt worth much like an old swords u wanna just have clean and dont care ab the damage to it
Baby wipes, worked well i even sit them out for a bit to get dry but still the water with it would seep in and allow the card to get damaged if rubbed hard so opted out of it
Microfiber, it was fine i used it to tap dry which helped out lots, wouldnt say clean whole thing w it tho
Magic eraser, used it but honestly got a lil scared it was harder to control and target the indents w grime and i had to wet it a bit for it to work wasnt a good combo
But this method trumped all and used it on the entire card after testing for the best results
Qtip and the alcohol (glasses cleaner): i learded quick, when u dip it in the liquid, before u put it on the card dap it on a cloth or something it shouldnt feel wet when u touch it just ever so slightly moist, if u hear windex on a mirror typa noise when u clean it, it’s too wet it needs to be dried more, bc that would allow it to damage it folding over itself etc, learned this a little late but happy w the results otherwise. DO NOTTT go in a side by side motion it’ll damage the card u need to go vertical in small strides and if u cant get the dirt stay in the same location and motion, dont increase the power just stay in that motion and location till the spec or grime is gone dont increase in strength bc ur in a rush like me, i made a few knicks this way, it comes off good tho with this method it’s the best i used fs.
To sum up qtip and the alcohol was best, please dont rush bc i did and messed up some spots and dont make the qtip wet at all just lil bit condensated. but overall I’m completely happy with this 100% thanks for all the help, it is possible to clean the white boarders while being safe.
