Recently I had been noticing some strange lines on my scans that I figured were from the film not being properly flattened after processing. Last night I happened to notice that it was actually inside my scanner on the other side of the glass. Does anyone know what this is from or how to clean it off? I'm starting to think that it might actually be from the stuff I use to clean off the glass before I scan. Help anyone?

Hi

Don's link will assist you with cleaning, I thought I might offer something extra to do while you're in there

I use windex to clean my glass, I don't know what you use, but the fogging is a common issue with plastics gassing (as they do in cars too)
