I was able to find some Polaroid 55 film. I have never used this film before and did some searching on the web and found little info on an item that came with the box. It is called "Polaroid Print Coater". My question is what is this used for and how do I use it? Also, what is a good mixing ratio for the sodium sulfite in the field to clean the negative?

God Bless,
David

Solution strength for clearing hte negative is 18%.
Coater is used to put a film on the positive so it doesn't oxidize.

Thanks Brian. The first website I went to but the second one I had never seen. I'll print that out tonight or tomorrow and read through it carefully. Thanks again.
