I've never even thought of putting on cotton gloves! All of my cels are in cel bags though...but what a great idea! I am always worried that I am going to harm them in some way that I never even thought of! Thanx ^_~

I've never worn gloves, but I've thought about it while handling cels. This thread has motivated me to look into it. Apparently a local stamp and coin shop carries some cotton gloves for a dollar a pair. I'll have to drop by there sometime this week.

Found this while I was doing Google searches... I'm sure it would apply to any collectible.

"Finally, don't talk directly over your coins because tiny, almost invisible droplets of saliva can drop onto the coin and show up later as spots. "

I don't talk when my cels are out of the bag because I'm too busy concentrating, but still...it's not something I've specifically thought about. The only other thing I do is put on a baseball cap to keep my unruly hair back.

When I was a newbie, Vash told me that the first thing I should do is to replace celbag b/c it muct been there for a long time and to prevent a cel to stuck to the bag.... Also he told me I have to wear gloves when I deal with cels..... :)

He is my cel senpai :) :) ;)

I guess that is what happens when you paint almost the same thing 20 or so times for a scene (or less/more). Do you know of any animators that are cel collectors/admirers like us and actually appreciate they art they make?
I think their are some animators who collector cels, But remember once the cel is painted and dried it was often shipped to another studio to be filmed. Also most of the studios who do the painting out source to other studios, some even to overseas studios. So when the animator finishes the with the cels chances are it is the last time they will see it.

Most of the HXH cels and a lot of the GTO cels were originally packed by me when I was at anime taro, Packing involves taking the cels out of the cut bag, matching the layers, deciding which cel gets married to the background and then bagging the cel. The cut bags and boxes are normally dusty and cotton gloves would get dirty in a second.

And once the job is done I got to burn all the junk cels, Trust me they were junk. Dealers aren't into the habit of burning good stock.
