Hello. My wife and I brought a small movie theater 6 months ago and have just got a hand on the basics.
If you would be so kind, we would love to ask few questions we REALLY need the answers for.
The Projectors are Century "C" and "CC"'s with Lumex and Super Lumex which houses the bulb (Did I get those two backwards? We went into this knowing NOTHING, but are learning up to a point). I see the obvious ports to oil, but are we missing any and how often should this be done?
Also can we dust the screens? Can we use swiffers and if not, what is the best way to dust them?
Finally the digital sound unit is a Sony DCP1000, can you get parts for this and if so, is it worth fixing? Thank you for any help you can give us. Mark

One small suggestion and that is to pay attention to the forum rules very carefully, for the rules are duly enforced-to keep this forum as professionally run as possible.

I'm sure Geralyn will make it a point to read the posted rules carefully before he breaks another rule with his second post.

Some advice, you better fix that thread title pronto before this thread gets deleted!

Suggestion: change your topic to "Questions of operations from new theatre owners", or similar - have to be specific with your topic instead of having us "guess" what your topic is about.

I'm surprised the topic hasnt been changed or the thread closed.

Yes, please re-read the rules and FAQ and click on the "edit" button next to the original post to change its title to something more meaningful than "Advice."

As promised, this thread has been deleted.

Some more advice for you Geralyn, pay attention to what people tell you. Don't just ignore them (like you did so well with the warnings of the rule enforcement here).
