Abstract
Sheets or webs of color photographic material are conveyed at a relatively low speed through a developing bath in a first vessel and thereupon through a fixing bath in a second vessel. Some liquid is drawn from the second vessel or from a source of fresh fixing solution and is sprayed uniformly and at an elevated pressure against the photosensitive layer of photographic material at or close to the upper level of liquid in the second vessel so as to remove streaks or droplets of developing solution which adhere to the photosensitive layer downstream of the first vessel.
