Yeah, I thought about it and reposted right after this first post asking if this was so...no one seemed to get that one? So it'll work fine for any full strength dillousion. So seeing as this is the case with XTOL in general, when dilluted, does that mean that Mark and the others are only developing 2-3 rolls in their 1 liter tanks to keep the 100ml of dev minimum per roll...??? - -- John Chicago, IL http://SlideOne.com ==================== - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
