Hi all,

This has happened to me as well when using old tri-x. It's definitely more
likely to happen w/old or expired film that wasn't properly stored. Your
best bet is to keep your temperature as low as possible. Keep in mind that
once the bleach hits the emulsion it will soften it. Try to get through the
final baths as quickly as you can and get it hanging up to dry, even if it
means less rinse time. Remember that if you're working in a warm
environment the chems won't stay cool for long... Good Luck!

-Kenny
