Kodak Hypo Clearing Agent

I switched to this after reading that it drastically cuts down wash time, and my fiber prints are noticeably cleaner now. The water savings are a nice bonus for someone developing a lot of film.

I’m a stickler for water conservation in the darkroom, so the reduced wash time this agent gives me is a real win—I’m using maybe a third of the water I did before. It’s also nice that the process doesn’t feel rushed; the solution mixes easily and does its job without any fuss.

My wash times dropped dramatically after I started using this—the water conservation alone makes it worth it. The powder dissolves quickly and doesn't leave any residue on my film. Perfect for my processing routine, and I can tell my negatives are getting a more thorough wash.
