Amazing where things grow! I never use a squeegee either, just a wettex cloth that I dampen and lightly wipe each side of the film. In the many years that I have done this I have never scratched a film. Has to be the genuine Wettex cloth, the ones that are made in Sweden, may be called Villeda over there. The beauty of this is that after a while you can move the cloths to kitchen duties!

Wettex!!!! Quite a revelation, thank you Tony! These squeegees, what a disappointment!
 
I don't use anything. Just a 30 second rinse in distilled water and wetting agent. I never get any marks or scratches.

Distilled water AND wetting agent together? So, ok, you rinse and then? Hang the negs?
 
There is nothing that can ruin this neg! Scratch or not, you've got an amazing piece of art here! Thanks for the share!
