all of which have proven effective to use. Also, JOBO offers an excellent product for cleaning your
processor, tanks, and reels, called Processor Clean II, a powdered concentrate, available in two
sizes #4135 (4.7 lb. jug) and #4136 (4oz. packet).
Caution: Stabilizer (or Kodak final rinse, or any Photo-Flo type surfactant) should always be used
in the following way: Use a dedicated container for the solution. This solution should be stored
and used off the processor (at room temperature). Remove the film from the reels before
immersing the film in the solution. If reels or tanks are immersed in these solutions, they will
eventually cause processing contamination effects. The reels will become difficult to load. Rinsing
or cleaning the reels or tanks after processing will not eliminate this problem.
Be gentle when drying the interior of the Expert Drum tubes. The walls of the tube are thin to
transfer heat from the water bath to the film. These walls are easily damaged by impact, pressure
or drying at too high a temperature. Do not use an Expert Drum if its walls are cracked or
distorted, as streaking or uneven density will show on the film or print.
WARNING: If you use any heated air device, be sure that the air temperature is not too hot. If the
temperature is too warm to be comfortable for your hands, it is too high a temperature. Always
practice caution when using electrical devices around water. Use devices approved for drying in a
wet environment. A ground-fault interrupt (G.F.I.) equipped electrical outlet is strongly
recommended.
