Hello photo gurus.

I have a simple question, would anyone know if refrigerating exposed

tri-x and acros 100 will stave off fading? I would normally develop

it within the first few days but certain factors negate this

possibility, however I can chuck it in the fridge for a couple of

weeks if it will make even a marginal difference.

Thank you all for your advice!

Hows it going everyone. I have a simple question that I am certain

some of you can answer. Way back when I was in high school

photojournalism class, we used the standard steel reel/tank combo

for b&w film processing, Untill...someone found this needo strip of

clear plastic stuff which looked not unlike film with rumpled sides

to which we assigned the name lasagna and quickly began hiding from

our instructor. This stuff was pretty cool, you just laid your film

along it and rolled it and your film up into a neat spiral and

bingo, no more pink spots on your developed film. Well as you can

imagine our teacher wondered how we had become so good at this

whole "It just takes practice" developing thing until one day she

found HER lasagna and to our horror doomed us to reels once again.

So in all of your 100,000 or so combined years of experience, can

any of you tell me what this stuff is/was really called and where I

can get some, or am I a Baffoon who never looks down the right isle.

Thanks,
