Hi,
is there any risk of fluid mounting pyro stained negs on drum scanners?
Could the solvents cause any harm/mess to the stain?

So far, it hasn't caused any damage to my negatives.

Ilford 120, 4X5, and 5X7 HP-5+ film, developed in Pyrocat-HD (in glycol).

Wet mounted with Kami mounting fluid on a Microtek M1 flat bed scanner.

I have been drum scanning my 4x5 & 12x20 HP5 PMK negs with Kami for about a year without any problems.
The stain hasn't changed at all.
