Hi Stefan, Prepare it as described on the sachet (my last batch came from the US and was intended for 4.7 litres of water). Soak the paper in it for two to three minutes, then rinse. Best regards, Franz

That means the ‘treatment’ would be much shorter than in Ilford’s Wash Aid. Can you overdo it (leaving residues in the paper)? The times on the Kodak packaging seemed extremely short to me compared to the hours of rinsing that are generally recommended (which is perhaps also excessive) – and also significantly shorter than in Ilford.

Hi Stefan, Why don’t you buy yourself a book? Since I left a forum (I think they’re just talking about “water” there at the moment) and shifted my focus to another forum: Usenet is still around. I wouldn’t be stepping on anyone’s toes there. You’ll find clear answers where I always am, Franz
