Wet scanning with a Canon 8800F

I thought that maybe someone will pull the question, "Will wet scanning improve image quality from
the Canon canoscan 8800F?"
Canon canoscan 8800F wet mount film scanning method
Image above shows my used method, a piece of glass and some Zippo fluid.
I didn't have the proper stuff to do it by the rules, but i guess it will give you a ruff hint of what
to expect from the wet mounting technique when used with this scanner.
Film, contact mounted with tape on top of the
glass bed of the scanner USM=A400 R2,1 T0

Hmmm! Wet scan actually looks a bit less sharp!
But it also carry a different grain/noise structure so maybe it is possible to use some more sharpening
for the wet scanned image, I will not do that here it just confuse you even more :0)
But if you like just download the full resolution wet scan from here:
