MERCURIC CHLORIDE

20 g Mercuric Chloride

One litre water

Bleaching time: One and a half times the time it takes to clear.

Although some people swear by it in a develop-wash-fix-wash-bleach in mercuric chloride-wash-refix-wash-rebleach in the ferricyanide 30-wash-photo-flo regime, it offers no improvement over anything else listed in this formulary.  It is poisonous, and permanence of the holograms is questionable

Shelf life: This stock solution lasts practically indefinitely.
