To remove excess silver ,we dip the slides in 4% Chromic acid and rinse
in 1% sodium bisulfite, then check under the scope. If too light, start at
the silver step again.   Remember that generally a solution is first in the
process because it affects the remaining steps, either to enhance or remove!

I use a coplin jar of distilled water and I add two -three drops of clorox
and then dip the slides until the excess silver comes off. Rinse well in
water.
