Hi

I have got a box of the impossible PQ 8x10 film and am peeling them to dry them out and then intend to mount them onto a new white background for display
most of them have peeled fine after about 15 minutes but a fe have stripped away some of the white paste from the negative sheet

Haas anybody found a way of removing it from the positive
I have tried but just end up stripping the emulsion

thanks

robin

Starting at about 3:17 they demonstrate removing the emulsion and mounting it to white paper.
