C'est la 3e commande de 2 bouteilles que je fais et j'en ferai d'autres. *by on Reviewed in Canada 17 January 2023* J'utilise PEC-12 depuis un an pour nettoyer les films 8 mm et Super 8 de mes clients avant leur numérisation. Il nettoie très bien, enlève les graisses et la poussière accumulée sur les pellicules et en plus, pour moi, est sa rapidité à sécher très rapidement (ce qui augment de très beaucoup ma production) sans laisser de résidus.Je le recommande fortement. J'adore ce produit. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job better than I believed possible *by on Reviewed in the United States 17 January 2011* I'm in the process of scanning more than a thousand Kodachrome slides (some 60 years old) and a huge quantity of photographs and negatives. Some of the photographs have been handled well, others not so well and are extremely dirty.With the Photographic Emulsion cleaner I've been able to remove spots, mold, even the dirt from 50 year old fingerprints. It's worked near miracles. There are some flaws that won't go away, the instructions clearly state that if the product doesn't work the first time, don't try a second, it can't remove every spot and repeated use may damage the emulsion. Certain emulsions will not tolerate the cleaner, a test procedure is outlined on the bottle.The cleaner has an extremely potent odor. If you're doing more than one or two photographs you need to get away from your work area to use it-leaving a window cracked open isn't a bad idea.It doesn't take much, just a little squirt on a cloth, don't use it at all unless a photograph needs it. It looks like this one container may see me through the entire project. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great base cleaner. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 4 November 2014* Pec 12 is very useful at certain applications. In my view its performance as an emulsion cleaner is limited to use on current 35mm colour film and even then you risk damaging the negative. On older film where the chemical composition of the emulsion may have shifted caution is highly recommended. I would be very wary of using it on any slide film emulsion and certainly never use it on Kodachrome emulsion. If in doubt only apply on the smooth base side of the film. Its better to have a print with with some flaws or a scan you can alter in photoshop than a destroyed negative.I have used it on the base side of 1960s film to remove marks left by condensation on glass mounted slides and it performed very well.Using a Giottos GTAA1900 Rocket Air Blower - Black then a Matin M-6328 Small Size Goat Hair Dust Brush to remove any loose debris is important. Then spray some of the pec 12 on Photographic Solutions 10x10cm Pec Pad (Pack of 100) as the final part of the cleaning routine.Use sparingly or it will leave a residue. It is very strong so don't plan to clean a large amount in one go and keep the area well ventilated. ## Frequently Bought Together - PEC-12 Photographic Emulsion Cleaner - Remove Non-Water Based Stains, Grease & Ink from Emulsions and Bases - For Cleaning 35mm Film, Photo Negative, B&W Slide with Dropper Tip (2oz) 2-Pack - ENPOINT 10 Pairs Archival Photo Gloves, White Work Gloves for Handling Art Working Photography Womens Cloth Gloves Liners Bulk for Handling Jewelry, Film, Photo, Coin Metal Inspection Men & Women --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/649635466-pec-12-emulsion-cleaner-non-water-based-stain-grease-ink](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/649635466-pec-12-emulsion-cleaner-non-water-based-stain-grease-ink) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
