Hi,
I have just bought a job lot of second hand film developing equipment and among it all are a number of chemical storage flasks, (the collapsible type), obviously they have been used in the past but I would like to continue using them.
The one that was used for developer has a dark brown residue inside it and the one that was used for fix has what looks like very fine metal filings inside.
I have tried rinsing with both hot and cold water but I guess a lot of the muck is stuck within the folds of the bottle.
Is there anything I can use that gets rid of all the old chemical before I reuse them or does it not really matter as I will be using the exact same chemicals as have been used in them before?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Kirk
