The lysol process that we used is as follows: We presoak the
watercolor paper first. In the presoak we added a cap full of lysol. The
presoak was short: only for about a min. depending on the particular paper.

I was shooting certian locations for clients where the tranfer
method was not conveinent in the field. We ended up shooting on tranparency
and then transfering later in the darkroom under the enlarger. Art
directors and clients seem to get a little weird when your playing w/
polaroid, on top of a scaffolding, in their factory and on there
budget/time. We found that we could color correct better on the trans. then
make the tranfer. Good luck :-)
