Ilford Simplicity Stop Bath 30ml (Single Sachet)

Ilford Simplicity Film Stop Bath is a low odour, citric acid stop bath which stops further development of film when used as part of a standard dev, stop, fix and wash film development process.

We recommend that all black & white films are rinsed in a stop bath after development as this can prolong the life of the fixer by neutralising the developer.

The Simplicity Film Stop Bath contains Ilford Ilfostop in an easy-to-use sachet containing the correct amount of photo chemicals to develop 2 rolls of 35mm (135) film or 1 roll of 120 film when using a 2-reel, 600ml developing tank at a dilution of 1+19. See ‘How to Use’ below.

Key Features:

  • Low odour, liquid concentrate, citric acid stop bath in a convenient, single-use SIMPLICITY sachet. Stops the development of 2 x 35mm (135) film or 1 roll of 120 film in a 2-reel developing tank.
  • Liquid concentrate film stop bath
  • Convenient, single-use sachet
  • Stops the development of 2 x 35mm or 1 x 120 film
  • Designed for use in 2-reel, 600ml developing tank
How to Use:

Simply pour the full contents of the dev, stop and fix sachets into separate measuring containers, dilute each one to 600ml with water at the correct temperature, stir to ensure they are mixed and then you are ready to use as part of the normal dev, stop, fix and wash sequence. At the end of the wash sequence add 2 cap-fulls of the wetting agent to the tank and give five inversions before removing the films.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Chloe ★★★★★

Split the single sachet into two smaller batches for different film rolls — the 30ml measured perfectly with a syringe. No harsh vinegar smell like other stop baths, just a faint citrus scent that’s much more pleasant to work with in my darkroom.

Christopher ★★★★★

The citric acid formula means I don’t have to hold my breath in the darkroom anymore, which is a huge plus for me. One sachet mixed into the water did exactly what it should, stopping my film development cleanly without any residue left behind.

Miles ★★★★★

Mixing this 30ml sachet into water was straightforward, and I was pleasantly surprised by how effectively it stopped development without any harsh fumes. The low odor really makes a difference in my small darkroom.
