I've ben reading this list for a while, and enjoy it very much. Maybe
someone can answer my most recent film question. Is peeling apart an
exposed and developed Polaroid 600 film safe? My friend, who is a high
school art teacher, has done and will do projects with her classes in which
they cut and peel apart the film from the base. I have a degree in
photography, and all my profs always taught us that Polaroid emulsion is not
the safest chemistry to be touching bare handed. I always use caution and
gloves when handling and peeling apart Polaroid films, or transferring
emulsions. My friend insists Polaroid emulsion is safe and fun. I have
written Polaroid and not received a response yet. I have read their MSDS's
which say the chemistry can cause skin burns. My friend still doesn't
believe me. Any suggestions/advice?
