Where to buy raw chemicals - For Pyrocat HD

[JBelthoff]

Hi All,

I would like to experiment with mixing Pyrocat-HD, and eventually other formulas, from raw chemicals. However the prices I am seeing in the normal photo places seem pretty high, or at least they look high to me.

Where can I purchase what I need without getting killed as a newbie chemical purchaser?

Thanks for your help!

Hi Gary,

Thanks I am looking there now but can't find: Pyrocatechin

Is there another name for that?

Photographers Formulary in Montana carries pyro.

I see catechol on Artcraft's list. That is what I used to mix Pyrocat.

Not any help to you perhaps, but Silverprint is a good place to try for us folks in the UK.
