Not in my case Ralph. I find film development tedious so I try to minimize the time. I usually use strong HC-110 to keep the development time at 6 minutes and only use a 1/2 minute presoak. With fresh rapid fixer I may only go 3 minutes in the fix (which is more than 2x clearing time). I think the brief rinse after fixing and fresh clearing agent is what does the trick. The pink is usually minimal or gone before the film hits the wash. I have never had any pink stain remain in the film using this procedure.
