I don't know anything about JOBO tanks, but I've developed several rolls of
Konica 750nm in my plastic Paterson, and have had no problems. I've only
tried one roll of Kodak HIE so far, and it didn't come out perfect, but I
suspect the problem there was an IR light leak in my camera (which the HIE
may be sensitive to, but not the 750nm) - I doubt that the tank was the
problem. The containers the film comes in is plastic (as far as I can
tell), so as long as it's black, and lightsafe, I would imagine it'd be
okay. (But then again, I'm relatively new to IR photography).
