    If using Pyrocat is new to you, I would remove that variable for the short term. There can be many issues that cause uneven development with Pyro. I’d suggest starting with a straight forward developer like D-76 or Xtol, get repeatable results from your workflow with the 3006 and then move to Pyro.

    For Fp4+ at normal development I’m developing 10min - 20•C

    I have been using Pyrocat for years in Btzs tubes and Paterson Orbital but the 3006 is new to me.

    All of this is good advice, thank you. I shall try again this afternoon and see what comes up.

    A quick update: I tested with 3 negatives yesterday. Upped the amount of liquid to 800mL and made sure that all negatives were thoroughly pushed to the bottom of each container.
    The 3 negatives came back without uneven marks that I could tell from sight only. So that s positive.
    Thank you for your help. Now to see if I can get good results consistently
