And wait. Scratches have disappeared.

My current method is a slow pass down each side with a piece of wrung-out chamois that has been dampened in distilled water. Photo-flo and a pre- photo-flo rinse also of distilled water (we have hard water here). I'm still getting a lot of crud, and since I'm starting use softer films I have to be very careful of scratches. All suggestions gratefully considered.
