    Short washing times for films

    I use RO (pure) water and fill and dump the tank 3 times in 10 minutes. Pure water has a great affinity for hypo, much more than tap water. I learned this trick from an old timer at Kodak many years ago, the same one that told me about developing slide film in C41 soup.
