What???

After re-washing, I would say that maybe 40% of the frames are usable.

The mixed batch is probably 2 or 3 months old. I just tossed it along with the mixed fixer and photo flow. I will re-filter the mixed Xtol and see how the next film turns out.

Working strength Kodak HCA has a useful life of between 24 hours and one month - see here: http://imaging.kodakalaris.com/sites/uat/files/wysiwyg/pro/chemistry/e103cp.pdf

After re-washing and new photo flo. Better, but must be some residue imbedded on emulsion side. I will re-filter the Xtol, toss the current fixer and clearing agent. Thanks to all for your input.

That looks much better. It is interesting to see that there are now new areas affected with the debris/residue.

Prior to scanning or storage, you may try giving a gentle clean with some isopropyl alcohol applied with cotton balls and then a blast of compressed air.

Were all the chemicals completely mix? No particles floating around?

Completely mixed and filtered. After I dumped the clearing agent I found a bit of residue on the bottle wall. Amber glass bottles. Filled the bottles with bleach mix and soaking them now.
