Hello everybody !
Pretty much everything is in the title. I put my hands on around 20 expired films from kodak, Ektar 25iso(negative) and E100V(positive). Thoses were already expired when i got them several years ago, and i did nothing with it for several years and now they are shot.
I used a...

Hi Maris,
Well, for myself, i'm processing in reversal with a Potassium Permanganate/Sulfuric Acid Bleach that soften the emulsion, not to the point it disolve, but still... so i'll try with hardening stop this morning !
I ordered some chemistry, i'll order some film next week to test it. I'm more interested in the hardening ability than the stop, but if the Ph is directly linked to the hardening capacity... I can have Sodium Bisulfate at 0,006€/gr and Potassium Alun at 0,008€/gr. I need 4L of chemistery to...
Hello Paul !
I'm home processing R100 as reversal, the permanganate bleach cause the emulsion to soften a lot in the second developer. So i'm going to give a try to your hardening bath recipe.
I'd like to know how long you use it ? Longer then the regular minute for a stop bath ? Did you try a...
Hello Tom !
So, here is how i do after loading the 30,5m reel :
1 - Pre soak in 20°C tap water.
2 - 1st developer is FOMATOL LQN (a cheap paper developer) 4L at 1+9, with 6gr of Sodium Thiosulfate Pentahydrate (both for overall density and to help get rid of the anti halation layer). Tap...
Hello, if i may, i have some questions, i use a bleach with a part A = Potassium Permanganate (3g/L) and part B = Sulfuric acid 5%. Mixed equal parts, i need 8 liters, 12min at 20°C to bleach a 30,5m 16mm film.
I am wondering what use is the Sodium Hexametaphosphate ? Does it prevent the...
