Yes, the duraflex trays are nice. I watch for them on ebay etc and some
stinker is trying to get $25 for 1 9x11 tray
For me it got to the point that the stain transfered to the borders of prints
even after using tray cleaner so I've abandoned that one. I work too hard
already on prints to have to worry about smudges on the borders too. Hopefully
yours won't do that.

I don't like it that my developer tray (Dektol) is stained, but I've
abandoned cleaning it.... is this a bad thing? I do wash my trays
carefully after each session with cool water and paper towels, but
that developer tray (a Kodak-yellow product from long ago when they
made beautiful things) is stained, and I say let it be stained...
