My Jobo uses plastic but its in a constant temp bath so that doesn't' matter at that point.

Yeah, my lab does my b/w film. as in MY lab, in the barn.
Stainless steel and reels, not Jobo.
The Scan Science stuff isn't oil-based and isn't particularly messy, I'm told. Volatile, evaporates instead of having to be cleaned off. They claim it's *less* toxic than some competitors. Ah, there's an MSDS online at <http://www.parrotcolor.com/data_pdfs/Lumina_MSDS.pdf>. Sounds somewhat more benign than many things which are hydrocarbon-based.
We’ve tried everything and oil mounting is messy, involves inhaling
toxic fumes, and can be done without.
Makes sense that somewhere with low wages would be good, and only data has to be transmitted, so it's not slow either.
The easiest way to spot is to send
them to India, but it ends up being pricey in spite of their low
rates. The low rate is for a 25MB file.
