JJC FS-1 Film Squeegee for 35mm & 120 Film | Soft Silicone Negative Wiper with Spare Blades

Water spots are the silent killer of a good roll. You nail the development, hang your film to dry, and come back to find drying marks baked into your negatives. The JJC FS-1 Film Squeegee helps you beat them by removing excess water right after the final rinse, cutting drying time and reducing the mineral spots that show up in your scans.

The design is simple and smart. Two soft silicone blades glide along both sides of your film strip at once, wiping away water without scratching the delicate emulsion. The ergonomic grip is comfortable in hand, and the whole thing is molded from water-resistant ABS — no metal parts to rust, no material that leaves residue behind on your film. It works with both 35mm and 120 formats, so one tool covers your whole developing setup.

JJC includes two spare silicone strips in the box, so when the blades eventually wear, you swap them instead of replacing the tool. A quick tip from our lab: always make sure the blades and your film are clean and dripping wet before wiping, use gentle pressure, and only pass through once — that’s how you get spotless negatives without any risk to the emulsion.

For anyone souping their own film at home, this is a cheap, easy upgrade that pays for itself the first time your negatives dry clean.
