Thread: Wet plate chemicals in the UK?

    Wet plate chemicals in the UK?

    I am thinking about dipping my toe into Collodion.
    However there seems to be a lot of restrictions on the chemistry needed where I am in the UK (London).
    Does anyone here have any experience of shooting Tintypes etc here?

    Dont really want to invest in equipment if the chemical supply will be too challenging to maintain

    Thank you

    Try contacting Joh here:

    He definitely can source chemistry, I've bought gold chloride from him in the past.

    I know there are people in the UK who buy their wet plate chemistry from Mamut in Czech Republic.

    I'm sure there are Health and Safety concerns about that practice!
