Sandy Vongries Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 You can use water, but it reduces fixer life from developer contamination. Indicator stop bath is a useful step and stops the chemical reaction of the developer, though not essential for films, beneficial, and IMO, necessary for traditional papers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
