Digital BW, The Print

I worked in commercial/professional labs for over six years, film cleaner to
begin with as it dehydrates the mould mildew, then a it's a good idea to
wash in water with photoflo/ E-6 final rinse and hang dry. Most often
cleaning with film cleaners does leave streaks. Whenever any stuff came in
that was dirty a quick rinse with photo flo diluted in water works a treat,
or alternatively you can use cotton buds dipped in photoflo, wipe very
gently though.
