Thanks Daniel and Hoppy for your suggestions,

Now I have many things to essay, the only problem is find the time ... I'll
try several things and I'll post the results on the LUG.

All the best from Barcelona
Luis

My suggestion is to use a different brand of film for a couple of rolls.

Ilford 120, for instance, is a real chore to get off the paper without
sending a little flash of static electricity. When it fogs film (the little
flash) it usually does it from the edge and then inwards, not like your
little defect. But who knows? It sure is a strange one.

Fuji film, Fomapan don't use the same kind of tape as Ilford films. It could
be that your brand of film is liable to do this to (this= flashing when
ripped off).
