Unh, unh. Best to use cheap Freestyle lith film (30 cents for a sheet of
8x10) and the Lawless method, easily adjusted to your target negative
density-- and fewer chemicals to buy. No sodium dithithioniocyatinate, no
sodium thiocyannate, and no scystine hypochloridamine. Guess I'm
repeating myself...
Oh, but did I say say alt printers would probably have all on hand, except
maybe the sulfuric?
