Majestic watercolors were waht my lab used. But using digital ICE on a b/w neg is impossible. ICE thinks the grain is dust.

Well that why you have iSRD and digital ice corrections guys.   You then can run 2 scans after doing your best to dust bust the film to then just reveal to the iSRD scan where ever the dust is left.   What lab didn't have a full time person with peerless water colors retoucing dust in the old days?

WE have an almost identical setup, but use a friendly gas substitute for air. The dirt we spend time spotting out doesn’t come from the scanner, it comes from the lab processing the film. AS labs have gotten more miserly in their operational costs, they have cut back on buying new filters for both water and air.

First thing I bought to put beside my film scanner(s) was my Meech Static Eliminator and I also ran a line from the air compressor to the scanning point.  I had this set up before to remove dust from film, why wouldn't I do the same for scanning?

It cut down spotting time considerably.
