About 3 weeks ago, I mixed up a liter of Amidol and made about 20 prints, then quickly put it in a plastic bottle and squeezed all the air out of it. I just poured it in a tray and made a print and the blacks are great - the solution is still an amber color (not dark brown) and it seems to have as much life as it did when I put it on the shelf. I had always been under the impression it would self destruct but it seems air is the major player in its demise. I will cork it back and see if I can get even more out of it - since I always feel like I am spending a lot of money to mix it up and I only use it when printing AZO.
