i tray process my 4x5 and have been using photographers formulary T-5 fixer. i left the fixer in the tray for a few days and now theres this whitish rough deposit on the tray, very very difficult to remove. in all the decades of being in the darkroom i have never seen this. I can deal with the usual white fixer residue, but this is like sandpaper!
What gives? heres a shot of my tray and scratches into the film with my fingernail.
thanks
