The Edwal product comes in a small bottle w/ an
applicator brush attached to the screw-on top.  It
would take the contents of the entire bottle to use it
in the way the you describe using the Tetenal product.
But next time, I will brush on the Edwal No-Scratch
and then try hanging the negative strip as you
describe. Perhaps it will spread evenly over the
negatives that way. 

I went to the Tetenal website, and could not find this
item. What is the name of it. B&H did not have any
Tetenal scratch removers either.

You may be right, I hadn't heard that before. But I am
extremely reluctant to touch the emulsion side of a
negative. I scratched the emulsion of a negative when
cleaning it w/ a cloth once, so I won't touch the
emulsion w/ anything except air from a blower or
canned air unless absolutely necessary.
