Hi Paul,I tend to throw out pink slides. As far as I know, there is no way of arresting the downward slide, excuse pun! You can scan them into a digital database and go through Photoshop contortions ( time consuming with pink slides) to restore the image to its original glory, copyright permitting,... could be worth it if the images are priceless documentary material of buildings or environments no longer in existence!
Ciao
