Mixing Kodak Fixer from Powder | Developing Solutions

Kdoak's powder fix is powerful stuff, but easy to mix. This video teaches the basic skill of how to mix Kodak's fixer into a gallon of working fixer. This requires a gallon of distilled water at room temperature. Here are some tips:

1- Use the gallon jug that your distilled water came in for your fix solution. These are easy to pour from and after the fix is dead and neutralized you can pitch the just and not be out anything. This also prevents you from accidentally mixing small amounts of old or incompatible chemistry with new by eliminating reusable jugs.

2- Do not neutralize, filter, and re-use old fixer liquid as your base for new fix. I tried this once and it was a serious problem. I have read online that people indicate that is safe to do. My experience with that was different.

3- Date the chemistry when you mix it. That way you know how old it's getting.

4- Put a hatch mark on the chemistry each time you use it. That way you know how weak it's getting.
