Next, I rinse 30 >seconds with constant agitation in Photoflo 1:200. This is followed by a 2 >1/2 minute rinse with constant agitation in Orbit Bath, Perma Wash, or >equivalent. (When this is poured out, the solution is distinctly pink.) >Next,wash normally and dip in Photoflo before drying. In my experience with >many rolls of TMAX, the pink/purple stain is completely removed.
