Jacket, liners and cleaning

As per a previous thread I am in the process of cleaning (excavating) about 700 disc given to me. There are about a billion threads on cleaning disc but what about jackets? Some of the jackets are a mold/paper machee mush but some are good enough to keep. The proverbial damp cloth is a start but on some covers the ink smears with a single whip. Any tried and true formulas out there?
Secondly for the covers which are toast I have purchased some plain white jackets but are there double jackets available or even triples? (Got a Grateful Dead Europe 72 which deserves a its own triple jacket and lots of doubles).
For the blank jackets i thought if I could find a photo of the original cover online and print it as label. Anybody done anything like that? I would love to hear your input/experience
Finally what are the pro/cons of paper VS plastic liners....that sounds like the high school honey at the grocery store.

I use poly-lined paper inner sleeves, and outer poly sleeves to contain the jacket and the LP-in-sleeve.
 
Use the polylined inners they preserve the lps, paper and cardboard inners scratch the lps just by handling the records
