9000 ED. Glass v. "Fluid Mount"

For the 9000 ED there exists a Cachet doohicky called:

"Cachet Image Mechanics Fluid Mount Tray for Nikon Super Coolscan 8000 &
9000 ED Scanners"

I assume by fluid mount they mean a contact fluid similar to that used
in drum scanners. Is that so?

Anyone here use it?

How easy is it to clean the fluid off of the film afterwards?

Thanks,
Alan

Much discussion of these matters he

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/coolscan8000-9000

(See you there!)

You might be thinking of the Grecco carrier:

http://www.aztek.com/Products/NIKONKAMIHOLDER.htm

But in any case, if you join that group and search
its archives, you'll find lots and lots of posts concerning
glass carriers and fluid-mount carriers for the LS-8000
and LS-9000.

Thanks,
I'll take a gander. The make appears to be "Cachet Image Mechanics".
