Hi There
Took the plunge and just started a B&W film dev and printing course at my local college.
Loving it! Real hands on stuff!
Developed my first ever reel the other day (under instruction) - Ilford Delta 100. Left in drying cabinet over night.
Did some contact sheets and test strips last night. Some negs had some whitestains (chalk deposits - one "benefit" from living on the South Downs). I had followed the teacher very carefully and rinsed etc, after the dev, fix and stop processing and ran the film between my fingers, squeegee style - before drying.
Any tips for getting rid of these marks on the current negs and also how to prevent future staining..?
Cheers
