Tim,
That's the main reason I've shied away from using tabular films. Too much
washing to remove the anti-halation dye.

This morning I processed two rolls of Neopan SS. My son-in-law shot thefilm, and he doesn’t remember when. After I fixed it I looked to be sure
there were images on it since it was probably very old, before all the
washing. When I completely finished it and looked closer the film seemed
bluish. I mixed up fresh fixer and fixed it again for a little over two
minutes which should have been enough to clear it, if it needed that and
using fresh fixer. I checked it again; still the same bluish color. I fixed
it a third time and just went through the whole process, washing washing.
It still looks the same. Does Neopan tend to have a bluish tint to it?

Left over anti-halation dye can be removed by extended washing. Tmax is
notable for this. I always wash film for at least 25 minutes in
continuously
exchanged water.
