Hi, I am processing 4x5 film for the first time in a few years. In the past I was able to do this without scratching any film, but now I seem to have trouble NOT scratching the film! I use Ilford HP5+ and I process it in BTZS tubes.
I can't tell when the scratches are happening: I suspect it may happen when I take the negative out of the tubes. I was very careful when rotating the film in the fixer and in the hypo clear, so I don't think it happened then.
Any suggestions about how to avoid this?
I don't have long fingernails at all.
