| Mordancage | Other | Use | 1 liter | Add copper chloride slowly to the water and stir. Add acetic acid slowly and stir. Add water to make 1 liter. Just before use, mix solution A and B together in equal parts to produce the amount of working solution you need. 1. Bleach a wet or dry print in the mordançage solution for twice as long as it takes to fully bleach. This can take from 1 minute to 15 2. Rinse well, especially with fiber paper. 3. Rub off the disintegrating emulsion with your gloved fingertips, cotton balls, or even the plastic scouring side of a sponge if it is not being cooperative--be careful or you may rub all the emulsion off and make scratch marks. 4. Redevelop the print in any of the following: Dektol normal strength or up to a 1:5 dilution, sepia toner 5. Remove, rinse carefully and fully, and inspect. If it is perfect, then fix the print in fixer as per normal (if it is not fully rinsed it will stink to high heaven when it gets in the fixer). OR, don't fix, and then wash. |
