Peeling apart problem

greenspun.com : LUSENET : polaroid transfers : One Thread

Help! After doing Polaroid Transfers for months and having beautiful results, for the last 2 days when I peel the positive and negative apart the black "goo" (emulsion?) is sticking to the positive. Sometimes it is just in the corner and other times it is like a rubbery film that has a life of its own as I peel apart. HELP!!! What am I doing wrong? How can I fix it? I've read Kathleen Carr's book. Still having the problem.

Try pouring hot water over the front and back of the paper/negative sandwich just prior to separating the two
