I don't have any trouble dipping the Hewes reels in the photoflow and then
rinsing them later with hot water. But if I'm using plastic jobo reels, I
pop them open and let the film fall gently into a sheet-film developing
tank filled with distilled water and Edwal wetting agent. Out after a few
seconds.
