    Question Need info about Silver Pixel RA-4

    Hello all!

    Has anyone ever tried this?

    http://freestylephoto.biz/10820-Silv...er?cat_id=1004

    Does anyone know what would be a good starting time/temp for dev and blix?
    The manufacturer does not publish much info.

    Is it safe to assume that the "Arista" RA-4 kits are downsized from these same kits?

    Thanks all in advance.

    I was actually able to dig up a little information myself, and I actually tried it!

    The kit is the same as the Kodak Ra-4 RT kit.

    It can be used at room temperature and with trays.

    No, you don't need the "starter" as the mixing instructions state.

    I processed mine in a Cibachrome Drum and got very clean results.

    My times were as follows,

    Developer : 2 Min.

    Stop : 30 Sec.

    Blix : 2 Min.

    Most Ra-4 paper develops to completion in about 2 minutes, so accurate timing is not a big issue here. Consistency with each processing step is what really matters.
