No, MIF Wash does *not* do these two steps:
 4. Choose View > Color > Definitions.
 5. From the Name pop-up menu, choose the
    color definition. Click Delete. 

All MIF Wash does is save as MIF and re-open,
then save as .fm binary.  The main advantages 
over doing that manually are speed and the
fact that using the Shift-File menu, you can 
do a whole book in one operation.

You don't always have to delete the color
definition; if it's an artifact, the MIF
Wash process will remove it.  If it is 
really there, as a result of a PNG, you
can fix the PNG as Richard Combs advised, 
then do MIF Wash again.

Note that MIF Wash is usable in the demo
version of Mif2Go; you do not need to buy
Mif2Go to use it, just install the demo:
