Hi, had this previously wondering if anyone had any ideas

Dev has had 4 films through it (mixed 9th November)

Bleach and fix had 12 films through ( mixed 11th October)

All films developed previously have been perfect, these are over two rolls shot on a slightly misty morning. I have used dehaze to accentuate problem marks.

Process

Warm in dry tank 3:30

Dev 3:15 first four 3:30 5th film agitate 45 secs then 1 inversion every 15 secs

Bleach 2min constant ag

Wash 1:30

Fix 4min constant ag

Wash 6min

Stab 2min

The first thing that comes to mind is insufficient bleaching and/or fixing. Try to run the film through bleach and then fix again, say 8-10 minutes at room temperature for both, with agitation. Maybe it'd be a good idea to use a fresh fixer for this, too. If you don't have any fresh C41 fixer on hand, regular rapid B&W fixer will do OK too.

Cheers for the reply, I’ve got some Ilford rapid fixer around I could mix up

If it makes any difference some frames are absolutely fine
