Ive just picked up an old Eumig 8mm projector along with family films from

the belts would have rotted away but it seems to use chains.

Anyhow, some of the old acetate films could do with a bit of repair work
and I have a splicer but no acetate cement. What is acetate cement? Could
I just try acetone or is there more to it than that? ...

It is film base dissolved in either acetone or methyl ethyl ketone.
