I have used Konica in a 6x9 Graphic with red bellows. No problem

I just came across a bellows on ebay with this quote: 
"This is an infrared bellows made for me by Ron Wisner about six years 
ago after I discovered the hard way that his beautiful red kid leather 
bellows do not stop infrared fogging. " 
The bellows for sale was black. 
It this a concern with all red bellows. The reason I ask is that I just 
purchased a Graflex Century Graphic with red bellows and was planning to 
use some Konica 750 120 in a roll film holder on it. Will this be a 
mistake? How about if I remove the dark-slide just before and replace 
just after taking the picture? 
What about IR film in cameras with a red film counter window?
