My ancient bottle of old syrupy HC-110 just ran out, but when I went to buy a replacement I see it's been reformulated. Sorta like New Coke. Does anyone have any experience---good or bad--with the reformulated stuff??? It doesn't seem possible to but the original forumla anywhere. Or is there a Formulary equivalent? Al

From what I've been reading, it works exactly the same (same times at same dilutions for all films) as the old. Hasn't been out long enough to know if the concentrate keeps like the old syrup did, but I wouldn't count on that -- but if you've been using old HC-110, the new should work for you and be easier to measure as a bonus.

I've been using the 'new' HC-110. I have not changed anything: all times, temp, agitation have remained the same. I was worried about some crystals that were on the bottom of the bottle (my first bottle), but they were not a problem.
