Technical Details: Ilford Ilfostop Stop Bath - 500ml
Ilfostop, a product of Ilford, is a citric acid stop bath with a minimal odour. It's highly recommended that post-development, films and papers are immersed in an acid stop bath. This process instantly halts development and neutralises the developer, aiding in the preservation of the fixer bath's activity. Ilfostop is particularly endorsed for dish/tray processing of paper or deep tank processing of film. By minimising the carry over of excess developer (alkaline) into the fixer bath (acidic), Ilfostop helps to sustain the activity and extend the lifespan of the fixer solution.
