They used to package movie film which requires a pre-process step to eliminate an anti-halation backing which, if dumped into c41 developer would cause gunk to deposit on other film. Bad news. They are exploiting the fear of lab managers who don't realize that the film they are presently spooling is actually a c41 process film, manufactured by Agfa, in fact. Find a lab that will process the film before you expose anything important on it. Otherwise throw it out. Don't pay SFW anything for promoting this scam. Mike "Sing whatever is well made..." - -W. B.
