Aaron,

I seem to recall that I reloaded the rolled negatives onto a Nikkor
stainless steel reel and soaking in a 75 degree F. bath of distilled
water with a few drops of Photo-Flo for a few hours.  I then hang
dried the negatives with a clip on weight, which took care of the
problem.

I'm certain that Richard will have a more current method of
doing the job.
