Hello Friends.....
I got some fuji BW and Color packs, expired. I had tried peel apart slowly, fast, "normal" for development, and I got those bands on my negs and for sure on my prints.
...always the same form, size and location with very small variations in shape and size,,,with different batch (different expired date), i got the same....I had tried a color pack immediatly after one bw pack and color develops great....no those bands¡¡¡
the exp. date on BW:2003, the exp date on color: 2009...
any advice...
Thanks in advance....

Take a look at Joe Gioia's outdated polaroid type 55 work.

Expired film can be hit and miss. I would suggest trying some fresh film to see if the problem persists. That should help narrow down the solution.

Shooter of Film...
The last few sheets of some Polaroid 55 film I had did nothing...the packet of chemicals had dried out and nothing developed...I kept this film in a camera bag stored in a closet that will keep a year round temp of about 73* (at most)...
Age is what ruined that film...

I agree it's probably due to the age of the film, but make sure that your rollers are clean! That's the most common cause of uneven development.

Pull out slooooowly.....
Pull out slooooowly.....
Hi friends....working on this issue...my last trial i have done.....is pull out the film very sloooowly - i mean 30 seconds- this way the dried aged chemicals are spread more efficient i guess....so my last photos shows very tiny bandings or none at all!....
