Distilled water with a bit of wetting agent (such as Ilfotol). Dip each negative strip into the water, rub it gently with your fingers from both sides, then hang it to let it dry naturally.

Corrie: I would hang them in dust free enviroment. I use the batroom, close the door and run the shower at full hot untill the room is steamed up. This gets all the dust out of the air. I have a "Ear siringe" can be purchased at most pharmacies, or in infant departments (normaly use as a suction device to clear small childres ears or noses) While the negs are hanging rinse with luke warm distilled water from top to bottom using the siringe. you can get quite a powerfull jet of water from the siringe that should wash all the bas stuff away. after rinsing get out of there close the door and let the negs dry. If you have to go, go out side! ;-) don't go back in and kick up dust.

Hi Corrie, if you are getting negatives returned in that sort of condition I would find a better Lab. The only thing that touches my own negatives is a blast of air from a can and a fine lens brush.
Dave.

Hi Corrie, find a better Lab. Use a blast of compressed air from a can to remove dust and hairs.

Darie: Rinse with a jet of distilled water. The deposits are called lime scale. they come from minerals in your tap water.
