[pure-silver] Re: cleaning containers

I personally wouldn't invest in new containers till I washed them out and tried it first, especially if they are glass. Plastics might be a little more prone to a problem, but if you just keep the fix in the old fix bottle the likely is reduced even further. Personally Id spend the money on film first. Others have already said the cleaners I typically use.

On a personal note, I do wish you the best on your new life. For those that haven't seen any of Becky's work, its usually first rate. If you post any of it on the web, send us a link. Many of us might want to enjoy it.

Hello everyone. It seems like it's been so long.... I haven't had the chance to do any photographing in quite some time. The divorce is final now and slowly I'm getting back to a normal life. That means I'll be able to do some photographing and darkroom work again in the future. I'm moving my darkroom to my mom's property, where I now live, and am wondering a few things. I was wondering about the old bottles of developers and fixers and wondering if it will hurt anything to just rinse them out with water or should I start with fresh containers. They have been setting there with old chemicals in them for over a year now. I hate to have to buy all new containers being that I'm on a tight budget. Will the buildup in the bottles cause any trouble for me?
