- I deal with Kodalux all the time. If you send in a reloaded film, just
- tell them that (I usually include the approx. frame number where the
- film was reloaded too) in the box on the mailer marked "special instructions".
- They will handmount the slides instead of sending them through the
- automatic machine. My experience is that they really do this since the
- slides take several days longer to get back to me. They have never
- cut through a frame in my experience.
- Just a note that despite many complaints about Kodalux, they are still
- giving me good service (this is on slide film only) and typically get
- slides back to me in 4 working days (the Fair Lawn plant is less than
- 50 miles from me).
