Enhance your photographic development process with the TF-4 0.5Gal Archival Rapid Fixer, a professional-grade product from the renowned brand, Photographers' Formulary. This high-quality fixer is specifically designed for use with PMK and other Pyro Film Developers, making it an essential tool for both amateur and professional photographers.
The TF-4 Archival Rapid Fixer stands out for its effectiveness on both paper and certain films, offering versatility in your photographic endeavors. It excels in batch processing, swiftly fixing resin-coated paper in just 30 seconds and fiber-based paper in a mere 60 seconds. This innovative solution also works wonders on T-Max films, eliminating the magenta stain within a 6-minute fixing period.
This reliable fixer is recommended for processing up to 20 rolls of film per 1-liter working solution, making it a cost-effective choice for your photography needs. Unlike many other fixers, TF-4 does not require a stop bath or a hypo clearing agent, simplifying your workflow. Plus, it emits minimal odor when mixed with distilled water, making your work environment more pleasant.
The TF-4 Archival Rapid Fixer is a non-hardening solution, making it ideal for prints that need to be toned or retouched. As most modern film emulsions come with a built-in hardener, this fixer eliminates the need for additional hardening in the fix.
The stock solution, which can be diluted 1:3 to create the working solution, boasts a shelf life of 1 year. Once mixed, the working solution remains effective for up to 6 months. With its high-quality formulation and impressive performance, the TF-4 0.5Gal Archival Rapid Fixer is a valuable addition to any photography toolkit.
