Caution
This film uses a small amount of caustic paste. If any paste appears, avoid contact with skin, eyes and mouth and keep away from children and animals. If you
get some paste on your skin, wipe it off immediately, then wash with water to avoid an alkali burn. If eye contact occurs,
quickly wash the area with plenty of water and see a doctor. Keep discarded materials away from children, animals, clothing and furniture.

Special Instructions
Force-drying prints:
Allow the print to air-dry for at least thirty (30) seconds before using a forced-hot-air dryer.
Viewing:
When evaluating the color balance of a print, use the same light source under which the print is to be viewed as a finished prod­uct.
Laminating prints:
This film is NOT recommended for use with laminates requiring a wet print to produce a photo-destruct bond.
Alternative Product
Use Polacolor 809 for emulsion lift

D-Max: The density value for the film’s darkest black.
D-Min: The lowest density value that a film exhibits. In prints, the whiteness of the brightest highlight, relative to the unprocessed print.
Slope: The positive ratio of the log E increments of the straight line region of the curve, as determined by the 1/4-3/4 increment method. The slope of an H&D curve indicates the overall contrast of a film: low contrast slopes less than 1.10; medium contrast slopes from 1.10 to 1.70; high contrast slopes greater than
1.70.
At 71o F/21o C: D-Max = 1.8 D-Min = .16 Slope = 1.30
