Hi, Snoopy.
Foma makes a developer called Fomadon LQR:
http://www.foma.cz. They write that when diluted
1+4 it can be used in developing machines, but give no more details...
Also, they don't supply it in 0.5 L bottles, as
they state on their site, but in 5 L ones. :-)
I personally have never used a machine
processor, so have not had the opportunity to test the LQR in one.
FWIW.
Fyodor.

Greetings all ye brethren,
not only did Gianni (Rondinin) get a new toy
recently, I did too: I got myself a HUGE Ilford
2150 development machine for RC prints. The
thing is a tank and according to the manual it
takes 14 LITERS (nearly 4 gallons) of developer
and the same amount of fixer and water rinse.
So when full the whole &§$! thing weighs about 140 kilos (nearly 300 lbs.).
The guys from the BMW Photoclub who sold it to
me also gave me a batch of Ilford 1250XL developer and fixer concentrate.
But I wold bneed to know where I can get more -
apparently the machine heats the chemistry to
about 35 degrees centigrade (nealry 100
Fahrenheit) and hence there is a special
developer for it. I guess normal developer
recipes just go bad too quickly at that temperature.
Does anyone know more about these developers? I
cannot seem to find anything about them on the
"new" Ilford Web Site and I have the feeling
the new Ilford might not make the stuff anymore.
So if anyone can point me to the make up of
these chemicals or can tell me a good
substitute (for AGFA RC papers, fixed grade and
multi-contrast) I would bve very grateful indeed.
Love
Snoopy
