Developer stain remover

Silver Intensification Silver intensification has a noticeable effect on low values, which is where thin, underexposed negatives usually need help. It does, however, have the unfortunate habit of staining everything black. Wear gloves and try not to get it on your hands or clothes, but if you accidentally stain yourself, try using the Developer Stain Remover for Hands found in Formulas. Instructions for silver intensification will be found in Formulas Negative Intensifiers Kodak IN-5 Silver Intensifier. 

Starch, fats and proteins cause ugly stains in textile. However, imder the influence of the right enzymes these disappear as snow for the sun. Already for decades detergent manufacturers tried to further refine the concept of enzymatic stain removal. Currently enzyme engineers and biotechnologists work together to develop more ideal detergent enzymes. 

By using Aerosol OT-100% Surfactant in dry cleaning solvent at a concentration of ca. 0.1 oz./gal. the soaps used as aids in watei—soluble stain removal can be replaced in the dry cleaning industry. In contrast to many soaps, Aerosol OT does not oxidize with consequent development of undesirabls odor upon aging. 

One more problem associated with pyro/cat developers is their tendency to stain everything fingers, clothing, and work surfaces. If you experience a problem with this try using one of the stain removing formulas in the Formulas Miscellaneous section of the Cookbook.

Enzymes have become integral components of most liquid detergent compositions as they continue to play an increasing role in the stain removal process. This has come about due to many recent advances in enzyme technology and has resulted in more efficient and effective strains. The ability of these enzymes to target specific classes of stains can provide the formulator with the flexibility to tailor the development of products for consumers with different requirements and preferences. In addition, enzymes are especially effective when the liquid detergent is used as a prespotter. 

Easy removal during the development process in order to avoid residual and unwanted color stain.
