Make the trip to Reading and buy proper print developer, it`ll save you paper and a lot of disappointment.

That's an awfull use of a -hopefully temporarily- discontinued developer! But you gotta do what you gotta do!

I went through a let's see what film developers work with paper after trying Rodinal as a print developer. Boy, a lot of em sure are bad! I remember getting some really wild print colors-I think I tried Acufine with Seagul G.

been looking around for news on Aculux 2, can't find a thing. Patersons web site hasn't been updated for a while...
