I stopped because it seem for awhile that all the real hard core darkroom people had stopped using it for all these various reasons. Pinholes. The shock of the acid making more grain. Or grain clumping. On and on. They only thing I figured out different was my fixer (HYPO) lasts a heck of a longer time when I use stop bath. Really conks out faster when I don't. This is part of general information I'm surprised no one said that yet. Everything but! I never got a pin hole in my life. And that a thing I would never lie about. "PinHEAD" is a term I've overheard people talking behind my back... But no PINHOLES from this guys darkroom. Pinenuts I got once. Mark Rabiner Photography Portland Oregon http://rabinergroup.com/
