Paterson Film Squeegee, 211

When I first used this squeegee, I was left with some lovely scratches down the entire length of my negatives. I looked closely and saw that there was a burr on one of the blades that could have caused some uneven pressure. I took a lighter and melted it back down into the blade, and now it works like a charm. No more scratches that I can see.

Easy to use trouble free aid removes excess water from slide or negative, black & white or color film before drying. Useful for medium format , 35 mm or smaller.

For 35mm negatives, it makes it easy to ensure all water drops are removed from the filmI also use photo-flo diluted properly for the final wash, I pour some of the solution from the developing tank on the squeegee so it is not dry when using.I have not had any issues as a few others have mentioned.I have tried other ways of removing the water to avoid stains but this device along with the photo-flo, which may or may not be necessary, has worked best so I will be sticking with it.

distilled water + wetting agent works better for me.. this squeegee sometimes scratches the film even if i wet the blades.

Used them after washing and they destroyed my negatives with scratches. Returned.

Fácil de usar, cumple con las expectativas

Love this product it does the job to take out water from the negative. I would just slowly squeeze the negatives for 1st use.
