The film came out completely clear, without even the frame numbers. The next time it developed the film but it was ruinously grainy. It took me 4 months to work up the courage to try a third time. I mixed it with distilled water instead of the filtered tap-water that I had been using. It worked fine. XTOL seems to be shockingly sensitive to small amounts of impurity in the water. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
