Hi Kelly, I like to use glycerin with cotton q-tips and wipe it onto the areas where I want the emulsion left untouched by the bleach. Do tests first to figure out thickness. You can also use Vaseline but it's a little thicker and can be a little harder to wash from the film afterwards. You can by the glycerin at the pharmacy. I have also used masking tape but prefer the oil bass materials. Hope this helps! Roger

(À la Naomi Uman). Anything similar to nail polish that would keep film emulsion through a bleaching? (Without the fumes/ toxicity?) I'm thinking of trying non-toxic nail polishes but not sure they'll hold through the bleaching like drugstore ones do... (I've been using splicer tape in place of nail polish for sections when I can, but I can't do that for the entire film. Protects the wanted areas of emulsion through a bleaching like nail polish.)
