Arista lith A and B diltuion questions

[Andrew Moxom]

I just purchased some Arista Lith developer to try my hand on lith printing again after a long hiatus. The directions on the bottles state a 1:4 dilution which I find a little strange as I thought most lith developers are meant to be highly diluted like 1:14 or higher when used on paper. So it might be that this time was quoted for use on lith film rather than paper. Anyone have any experience using this particular developer, and how did it work out compared to others that are currently available like fotospeed??

In the past, I've used Novalith when I lived in the UK, and had some interesting results. The Arista chems are new to me.

I'm hoping to try some lith work this week.

Thanks in advance.

Never mind, I checked their web site out and it lists 1:14 or higher for lith printing use.

Arista Lith developer is Clayton. I used it years ago with Forte papers. Works fine.
