[pure-silver] Re: Silicon Caulk for wash trays (was Stainless Steel Trays)

If you mean something like GE Silicone Rubber that should work.  You
need something that will adhere firmly to the tray.

However, kitty litter basins are a bit flimsy and have a tendency to
bend or twist when you lift them up causing the liquid to spill out.  My
suggestion would be to go to a restaurant supply store.  They make grey
plastic basins for breaking down tables that are very heavy and do have
deep ridges on the bottom.  I routinely use one for washing.  If you
have a Sam's Club store nearby they sell two for about $9.00.  They are
designed for rough treatment and are quite sturdy.

Good timing Jerry, as I was about to ask a very similar question. =3D20

I'm "moving up" to 11x14 FB prints (max size for my tiny d.r.) and =3D
purchased 4 Patterson trays for standard processing.  However, for =3D
washing and multiple toning chemicals I'm moving toward kitty litter =3D
basins (conveniently 15.5 x 18 x 6).  My concern is the flat bottom - =
=3D
prints sticking as well as not receiving fresh chemicals on the paper =

surface.  I was thinking that a few lines of Silicon Caulk laid on the =
=3D
bottom of each would correct this.  Are there any concerns I should be =
=3D
aware of by going this route?  Thanks =3D20

A problem with food trays is that they don't have any ridges on the
bottom.  Prints tend to stick and there is no way of getting tongs under
them.
