How To Use

As it is a powder, you dilute it to make a stock solution first. To prepare Foma Retro Special Film Developer stock, dissolve the contents of the smaller bag in 700ml of warm water. Stir until the powder has dissolved. Then continue to stir, while gradually adding the contents of the larger bag. Keep stirring until no more powder dissolves. Add 300ml water to make up 1 litre of stock. Allow this to cool to room temperature, then it is then ready to use.

You can reuse this developer. Simply extend the development by 10% each time. For more info have a look at the Retro Special Developer PDF. Store in a tightly capped bottle until needed for use.
