Do you find that you have problems with Newton's Rings?

Steve;

The filters should be in the filter tray!

Aha! I had in mind sandwiching a piece of film directly against the cross-processed neg.

I have given a slight warm flash to give more natural look in skin tone.
second enlarger , flash the whole paper, then put into standard enlarger and print

What if you put the unexposed, developed C41 stock taped on the top neg holder so it doesn't come in contact with the Xpross neg.

Would this work?

It is fine anywhere in the light train except under the lens or between the lens and negative. In fact, with sheet film, there is an anti-Newton Ring layer as a coating on the back in some films. It was recently eliminated due to scanning problems.

This layer on the back of sheet films was intended to reduce Newton Rings and also aid in retouching.
