Hi,

Does anyone have any info on what type of stop bath and fixer to use for the FA-1027? I only have Arista Orderless PowderFIxer and Kodak Stop Bath.
I will be developing 4 x 5 , TMAX 100 sheet film with this developer.

Welcome to Photrio.
I tweaked your thread title a bit, because I needed to look up FA-1027 to figure out what you were asking :smile:.
Based on what I see about the developer, I'd say that the Kodak stop bath should be fine.
The Arista powder fixer might struggle a bit with T-Max films, because it is a regular fixer that uses sodium thiosulfate, rather than a rapid fixer that uses ammonium thiosulfate - the rapid fixers work much better with T-grain and similar films.
But that is more to do with the film, than the developer.

Your stop bath and fixer will work just fine.
