I really don't know what what I did wrong. I know that motion is very important and that's what I did. Acording to the morse g-3 manual I winded the whole reel for less than 1 min a than again repeating till the end of each step. I rinsed the film with running water after each step. For second exposure I used exactly what you've written but I gained brown coating on the whole film strip. I seems to be between base and silver image. This wasn't my first time processing. I did exactly what I've been doing every time. i just don't understand what could cause it. Any idea? It's just a mystery to me.

I processed 30m of FOMPAN 100 R film in MORSE G-3 tank. I used standart FOMA Reversal KIt. Everything was fresh and unused before. I even doubled the time of each step. The result is brown non-transparent coating which cover the whole film strip. There is a visible image but the brown coating disables to see through. I tried to put it back in clearing bath but it didn't work. So I mixed 2g of KMnO4 with 1 l of water. The brown coating dissolves in KMnO4 but it turn out to be negative even though the visible image on damaged film is positive. Do you have any experience with it? Any suggestions? Thank you
