Thank you, Crustless.
This one goes in the keeper file.
I'm gonna shoot a CrazyRoll, take it to the worst lab I know, experiment with the 4-shot strips, and hopefully learn to cut down on scan spotting without PEC.

You can dose the negs pretty heavily, actually. If there is a bit of suds on the water, that is fine. It depends on how crusty the negs are. I fill a sink with water and put a glob of detergent into it if I need to go this route. Film processing is done at 100�F, 38�C, you don't want to go much warmer than that. After that, a good rinse or three in clear water, and a soak in stabilizer to finish the process. The stabilizer is kinda optional, I like to use it because it makes the water come off the film without dryer marks and you can't over stabilize a film.
I wouldn't try naptha on a film I wanted to keep, on the off chance it dissolves the emulsion or base. It may be OK, I don't know. Try it and see, although detergent and water in sufficient strength should take most everything off.
