Hi, I came across some old negatives I didn't even know I had. They were in storage in a very humid state for at least 2 yrs now. Needless to say, they were stuck together.. yeah, I know, I should have put them in sheets, but they weren't. Like I said, I didn't know I had them, thought they were lost a long time ago.
Most came apart quite easily, but looks like they have water spots on them. Some I cannot take apart without ruining them. Is there a way to do save them? Is there a way to get the "water" spots off? And is there a way to get the ones that are really glued together, apart? And if they can be saved, does anyone do film processing anymore? There are a few pictures that, if I can, would really like to have developed.
Some of the photos were ruined in storage too.. yes.. hard lesson learned.. but at the time, we really had no other choice.
But does anyone have any advice for me on the negatives? These are at least 10-15 yrs old, if not older.
Thank you for any advice and suggestions--
