Kodak Flexicolor Developer Starter + Developer Replennisher help

[K2adie]

Hello,
I recently got these two but developer starter didnt come with instructions
I use a Jobo processor and daylight tanks from Agfa, the ones you can use while traveling


1) https://www.uniquephoto.com/product/c-41-dev-repl-lorr-tm-5l-ek-kodak-xhaz-hazsp1-832-0608-8231672/_/searchString/kodak flexicolor
2) https://www.uniquephoto.com/product/kodak-c-41-dev-starter-lorr-1-2l-6601074/_/searchString/kodak flexicolor
----

Dev starer says many things on it, such as
C-41, C41RA, C42B it says "S" in a blue circle and LORR at top of it.
many text on it is in Chinese, no instructions nothing really useful
CAT number is 660 1074
--
Replenisher came with some instructions, at least it is saying how to mix it.
It Says C41, C41B, C41RA, LU and LORR on the box.
instructions are basically like this
It says 4 liters of water, mix A --- stir --- mix B --- Stir ---- Mix C and you are good to go.
- Cat number is 823 1672

If I'm right (and probably I am not) I need to mix these two together to get a working C41 developer.
That will give me total of 6.2 liters of chemical.
Is that solution going to be one shot? If not, how do I make it fresh again? I counlt find any PDF's for this combo.

Can I get a working solution with only Replenisher box? If yes, how so?is there any PDF or tutorial about that?
-

just tell me what to do, link me some tutorials or pdf and please help me out. because starer didint come with anything and I cannot read Chinese

thanks

Did you notice the other recent thread in this forum about starter? It may be of some help.

(there was a url link here which no longer exists)

so someone there says
"I have the LORR starter and it has amounts on the back for LORR and regular developer.
For normal developer it states 860ml dev +18ml starter + 122ml water"
-
So my guess is,
860ml Dev Replennisher + 18 ml Starter + 122 ml water gives me 1 liter of active C41? Am i right on this one? my label is Chinese, all i can say is those numbers do match to something on the label. Again, label is chinese. I dont know what does "dev reple" look like in Chinese
---
I believe that 1 liter of active chemical is re-usable over and over again? tetenal kits develop 8 rolls with 1 liter.
After using that 1 liter active developer, am I going to add little bit of devolep replenishment i have or just keep adding starter?

Aghhh! Kodak should give instruction manuals to people!
it shouldnt be this hard to figure out, give a link, qr code or something. Figuring out how to use those chemicals are much harder than making your own C41, no wonder film is dead

It's pretty simple. The Flexicolor LORR bottles gives you the proportion to mix the stock 5L solution. I divide in 2 and mix 2.5L at a time. Then you look at the Starter bottle, which gives you the proportion of starter to stock to make working solution. With the starter and water, you get ~3.5 L altogether from that 2.5L stock. So with the 5L box, you get ~7L working solution.

You can replenish them but they are so cheap relatively speaking that I use them one shot and at least 250ml per 1 roll of 35mm/120/4 sheets of 4x5. This is MORE than the other C-41 kit!! There is some replenishment schedule somewhere on Kodak's site if you want to save some pennies, but really, is it worth it?!!
