Second pass lith question

winger · Apr 25, 2017

I'm going to try some 2nd pass lith using Moersch easy lith. Should I use the same dilution starting points as for regular lith printing or should it be different? I think I usually have started with 25ml A + 25ml B + ~950ml water. Though I'm kinda guessing 'cause it's been too long. If paper makes a difference, I'll probably be using Ilford papers - mostly warmtone FB.

Ilford WTFB can work well. I've not changed the concentration of my lith chemicals for re-developing. You will increase the contrast, and could lose highlight detail.
Here's one of my experiments:

Cool!! Thank you, Lillian; can't wait to try now (need a good free day - toughest part).

Bravo for the kind help, Sly. The images are both dang good.

I don't have any examples at the moment, but like Sly, I haven't changed my lith concentrations for 2nd pass lith.

Hi Lillian,

as I am not (yet) a Subscriber, I am unable to look at your link BUT I have just looked at your web-link and I just had to say that I really like some of your pinhole pics!
