Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Samuel ★★★★★

Mixing this concentrate at 1+9 was straightforward, and it gave me rich, even tones on fiber-based paper without any streaking. The 1L bottle lasts a long time for darkroom work.

Madison ★★★★★

Finally got consistent deep blacks on fibre paper without any streaks—the 1+9 dilution is really forgiving. My test strips came out clean from the first tray, which never happened with home-brew recipes.

Riley ★★★★★

The 1L bottle lasts way longer than expected since the 1+9 dilution means a little goes far, and my fibre-based prints came out with rich blacks and clean whites right off the bat. It dissolves into water without any fuss, and I've been using it for both RC and fibre paper without adjusting a thing.
