Hello all,

I've seemed to misplace the instructions and I don't remember all of the temps and times yet, if someone could copy theirs I'd greatly appreciate it, I can't find it anywhere on the internet.
 
To my great surprise I was unable to find these instructions online. Fortunately the E6 process is standardized, therefore development with this kit should run very similar to what Tetenal's E-6 instructions recommend.
 
I believe you will find the instructions on Freestyle.com but the Tetenal's should be the same
 
There is no reversal bath nor is there any stabilizer.

Is Unicolour the same as Tetenal? At least Tetenal gives a bottle of Stab.
If their E6 is a bad as their C41 powder I'd avoid it, now there's a few rolls of Ektar I'm not getting back.

I'd love to 6-bath but Tetenal is the best we can get downunder without being a lab buying 50L at a time.

Also note that Tetenal instructions say to increase FD time by a minute with Fuji films in a Jobo, which I've done with Velvia and gotten perfect results. I don't know if Unicolour needs the same or not.
 
Just remember to use a good reversal step (light or reversal bath) and a good formalin Stabilizer (formula elsewhere) and if you get grungy Dmins or whites, then it is the blix step, and so you must refix and wash and stabilize.

Tetenal, and most likely Unicolor, have their reexposure compound in their CD bath (not listed in MSDS, though). They need neither a dedicated reexposure bath, nor a light reversal step.
 
Rudi, thanks. I had forgotten that.

I hope it is nothing nasty. The ones we found at EK were not very friendly.

I guess they are reasonably benign at the concentrations used, otherwise they'd be listed in the msds ...
