hypo clear and pyrocat hd

[mitch brown]

hi all
i just developed some fp4+ using pyrocat hd and used hypo clear just prior to washing , then it struck me that i might be washing out the stain by using the hypo clear. does it reduce the stain? i use hypoclear due to a pinkish cast after fixing.
thanks

about half the time I also use perma-wash with fp4+ and other films (mostly the Tmax films) even when I use TF4 fixer and I have not seen any loss of stain.
