Reel Projector Film

I am playing some old family movies (16mm & 8mm) on old projectors, is there a good way to clean the film?
The films I have been working with so far seem to be in pretty good condition, but some of the reels seem a little dirty (moldy or mildewy maybe?) and I'm ondering if there's an easy way that I might put a cleaning solution of some sort on a cloth and maybe run the film across a damp cloth? Or maybe run the film through a solution? I obviously have no idea where to start, but I would like to do it myself if it's at all practical. Thanks for any insight.
I the days when I used to take home movies (film ones I mean), there were certainly cleaners that you put on a cloth, as you say, and ran across the film Whether anything suitable is made these days I don't know. Why not try just a slightly damp rag on an unimportant piece of film and see what happens. Or another idea - if you have a camcorder, why not try videoing the old films - project them on to your screen and line the video camera up with it and film away.
