...the white spot/milky blotch stuff is AgCl [silver chloride]...

Silver Chloride is nearly insoluble in water but if you add enough ammonia it will dissolve.

Ammonia has been added to Ottawa tapwater since 1992 in the form of Chloramine (instead of chlorine).

I have very little knowledge of chemistry, but I wonder if using untreated city tapwater will leave silver chloride precipitate on the blanks when they are cleaned. Chloramine is evil stuff in my other hobby (wine-making) & has to be neutralized with potassium metabisulfite or sodium metabisulfite.
