I guess you'd still need to put the print thru a water rinse after the acid
stop to minimize any effect on the alk fixer, right?
And do you really get that much continuing development once you put the
print into the water stop bath? I'm using a tray with a Kodak siphon
sucking water off the stop bath as new water is added. I let the print sit
in there with moderatly high volume of water flow for at least a minute.
Then it goes right into the fixer (TF4). I usually develop my prints for
4-6x factorial... isn't activity pretty slow already by that time? Do I
really need another tray with acid stop?
