Thanks Richard. I was about to resend my question as it never made it to my box, and yet was on the freelist archive. Mysteries of the net. So 15 gms of citric added to 1 liter of rapid fix for 2-5 minutes? I've got 8 bloody rolls of this nonsense (all from the one film run) so wiping them all isn't that appealing, nor could I do them all thoroughly in limited time I'll have to do it. I could see how it looks that wiping them might be the ticket (unfortunately) as in the scan you can see where I had handled the film on the leader when I hung the film. I've left 7 of the 8 rolls uncut in hopes that I could do some treatment on the reels after which I'll have a chat w/the Kodak boys as to why their products do such things when you follow all the rules.

If so it should be visible by reflected light, will probably look a bit like an oil slick. I am grabbing at straws here. Also, re-wet the film and see if it can be wiped off. If it is dichroic fog it can be removed. I don't think its from poor fixing. -- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA dickburk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
