Black and white stocks have no "Rem Jet" backing layer. Thats why B+W gets such great halation splay around whites

The early Cintel machines were like a blender with this stuff. I can remember having to vaccuum the deck plate after each reel of film.

See, there are parts of this business I remember fondly :)

My favorite thing about b&w neg stock was the softer emulsion (or some
processing quirk) making a mess of the gate and rollers on the Ursa.
