I have some Kodak Flexicolor C-41 LORR / LU developer and am mixing the 10L kit into 1L replenishment solutions (from water, part a + part b + part c and more water) / 10.
It says this is a replenishment solution, so I've been adding the necessary starter as well - which goes, according to the starter bottle, something like, take 207ml water, 30ml starter, and 763ml of the above replenisher.
I have in the past used the SM Tank developer which was also water + parts a + b + c - and did not require a starter.
I'm wondering, is this how I'm supposed to be doing it with the LORR / LU?
Wondering if the replenisher could (or should) be used as developer without the starter (as the SM Tank developer chemistry), since it's mixed fresh, and I plan to use one shot?
Also, adding the starter to the replenishment solution causes me to waste 237ml of initially mixed 1000ml replenisher solution, because I'm breaking the 10L developer kit into 1L (figuring out how to get 763ml from the 10L kit would not be fun for me ).
If not one shot, I'm wondering, would it be correct to, after each use, to get working solution, use the starter bottle recipe mentioned above, using 763ml of the current developer as replenisher? Wondering also, how long I can keep the replenisher around before creating this working solution again, or if it would just be better to mix from scratch again?
Thanks,
Bill
