She's gonna have a wet Xterra in any case, Scott,

I had noticed that the problem wasn't as prevalen in recent years as it once
was. But I was using Ilford Multigrade IV when I last did darkroom work and
long soaks resulted in a look that I would describe as foggy. It was uneven,
only part of the paper would be damaged, which rendered the prin
You should throw them away. I have used RC paper since 1975 and only
the older papers were subject to fog (maybe), particularly Kodak, i
will try to 'fogwash' some current Ilford paper. Perhaps it is the
loss of brightener in your papers. To me, loss of brightness is not
