RE: Newbie in lith print



Hi P.,

If you cannot buy prepaired devlopers you're stuck with paraformaldehyde
I am afraid. I use the D-85 formula with good succes. Some people claim
you can replace the paraformaldehyde with aceton, but I recall that
people weren't that happy with the results (was that you, Christina?).

AFAIK Ilford RC does not lith print.


Good luck

Cor

Subject: Newbie in lith print

Hello everybody, I'm a newbie in lith printing. I've bought the
wonderful Tim Rudman's book to start to learn about this. In Italy it is
very difficult to find specific developers, so being me a chemist, I
would like to prepare them by myself. I've visited unblinkingeye.com
site where few of them are present. I do not want to use formaldehyde or
paraformaldehyde. Who can help me please? Normally I work with RC Ilford
multigrade paper and this should be my starting point.
Thanks in advance to all of you.
P.
