Arista Premium Liquid Film Developer

[Gregg Brekke]

Does anyone have experience with this developer from FreeStyle?

Based on the 1:9 and 1:14 mixing recommendations - it seems that it might be repackaged Ilfosol S which I really liked for HP5+ and FP4+.

Any advice is appreciated!

I use it all the time. I like the results that I get with it.

I've used this developer in the past, and it works very well. It's made for Freestyle by Clayton, and I believe is repackaged Clayton F-76 plus. My understanding is that it's intended to behave like D-76, except that Clayton uses phenidone instead of metol. I saw a post awhile back on another forum - don't remember which - that Clayton makes most or all of Freestyle's liquid concentrate chemistry. Freestyle also stocks Clayton branded products.

OOps, I meant the Clayton makes most or all of Freestyle's Arista branded liquid concentrate chemistry.
