[net.rec.photo] Parcolor Life

mls@harpo.UUCP (12/10/84)

I used some Parcolor to develop some prints last night.  The
whites came out a cream color with a slight hint of blue.  Do you
know what this is due to.  Could it be old unmixed chemicals.  I
believe these are two years old.

Has anybody used the new Bessler liquid chemicals?  What is the life
of bulk chemicals unmixed after they have been opened?  What is the
life of the mixed chemicals?

With Parcolor the mixed life of the developer is several days and
the fixer 30 days.
