Hello! I was wondering if anyone knew if impossible project films were safe to handle unexposed in the darkroom under a red light?

Im guessing its a no for the colour stuff but how about B&W?

Thanks, Max

I don't know for certain, but as long as we're guessing:

No.

No modern B&W panchromatic films are safe under a red light.

Definitely not, only some old orthochromatic films were safe under red light.
