Hi guys,
I found some really old unused super 8 cartriges, unfortunately they are more than 25 years old, so using them is not worth it.
So I thought maybe I could use them as film leader, for some of my films.
But as I´ve leard that film is delicate especially around chemicals, so could unprocessed film afect my film collection if I use it as leader??
thanks
pablo

I've done it for years and never had any problems whatsoever.
