Yes, I use a mixture of Kodak Photoflo and distilled water for the final wash, then hang to dry without using a squeegee.

For the first few rolls, I was filling the developing tank with distilled water, adding 2-3 drops of Photoflo, doing a few inversions and letting the film sit for 30 seconds before removing it and hanging it to dry. Jobo recommends not using a wetting agent in its tanks or with its reels so, for my last roll (last image above), I removed the film from the Jobo tank/reel, immersed it in a separate container holding the Photoflo mixture and let it sit for 1 minute. Then I removed the film and hung it to dry. I got streaks using either method, although the streaks in the last (Jobo) image are much more subtle than the others.
