I use a plexi archival washer, it's the kind of thing that's real easy to fill,
wash, dump and refill several times. I've never observed a problem with the
brighteners, but it's probably wise to heed the advice. I've also never used
wash times as short as Ilford recommends, the problem is doing batches of prints
it's hard to police them and there's no complete isolation of dirty prints from
clean ones, so you pretty much have to wash until the last print is clean. I
suspect that you have to
test each paper for this, cause as I said, NOTHING I did would make Polyfiber
pass the residual silver test without a full, long fix. Ilford FBMG, Oriental,
Zone VI all did fine.<shrug>
