It would be appreciated. Maybe a half dozen while they are at it. But I don't want anybody running unnecessary risks?


Why would Diafine be considered a hazmat???

Hi,

I've found out, much to my regret, that Diafine is no longer available in Canada. I wanted to get some to develop some 16mm microfilm that i have been shooting in a Mamiya-16 and Minolta-16 II.

It is available in the US, at Freestyle and B&H. B&H states quite clearly that they will not ship and that you have to come to pick it up at the store; Freestyle tells me that they can't ship Diafine to Canada because it is considered a hazmat and there are to many obstacles and too expensive to ship a hazmat.

I did a search in Google to see if the formula is available; the chemicals I can get locally. But all I got was several two part developer substitutes for Diafine but not the actual formula. Is it some sort of state secret???

Would anybody in the group have the formula for Diafine?

Cheers,
bogdan
