Loris, going from a bath of slightly acid to basic could be easily achieved
with a final bath of Tetra/Sulfite and leaving out the citric acid, or even
a bath of sodium carbonate after your wash.

Same here...

OTOH, I'm not sure I'd like to include citric acid into Na4.EDTA; I
already do process in citric acid first, and would prefer to leave the
paper in a neutral/alkali condition for best possible longevity.
Still, I may use it as the first clearing bath and then do another
clearing run w/o the citric acid, in case of stubborn papers that
won't clear the first time...

Thanks again,
Loris.
