What sort of dilution do I need for bleaching back a negative with just potassium ferricyanide? Will refixing the negative in rapid fix be okay or will it do some harmful/bad reaction?
I got a box of c.1968 HP3 4x5 sheet film and it has some heavy base fog... after searching around on here I read someone uses potassium ferricyanide to bleach the negative back to counteract base fog but no one ever says how much or a formula or starting point. I'd need enough liquid for a 10x12 tray so about a litre will do.
