Description

Tetenal Mirasol 2000 Antistatic Wetting Agent 250ml

Using Tetenal Mirasol 2000 will help your film to dry quickly and evenly. This will greatly reduce the risk of drying marks left on film after development. You should use it as a final rinse before you hang your film up to dry. It will allow the film to dry in a more uniform fashion and thus prevent the marks.

After development, stop, fix and wash, you simply leave your film in the wetting agent for about a minute. You then take the film out, wipe off any excess and then hang it up to dry.

While a wetting agent isn’t a vital step in developing film, it will make your life much easier when you come to scan or print your negatives. With a high dilution, a bottle will last you a long time. So, we think it’s worth the small extra cost.

Diluted 1+400 it goes a long way. So you can expect to cover over 100 films with one bottle.

Additionally, you can use it to clean lenses and filters. It works well as an antistatic treatment.

How To Use

To prepare your wetting agent, dilute Tetenal Mirasol 2000 1+400. That means one part Mirasol to four-hundred parts water. Make sure you mix together thoroughly before use.
