Solid choice for beginners
Easy to mix and use. Instructions were clear. My first batch of developed photos turned out great. Will buy again when I run out.

Good value for the volume
Great product that lasts a long time due to the high dilution ratio. Only giving 4 stars because the bottle cap was slightly loose upon arrival, but no leakage occurred.

Excellent clarity for my negatives
This fixer works perfectly with my home development setup. The negatives come out crystal clear with no residual cloudiness. Highly recommended for serious analog photographers.

Professional results every time
I have been using F5 Fixer for years in my darkroom. It is consistent, reliable, and produces archival quality fixes for both film and fiber-based paper.

Standard for my lab
We use this exclusively in our small studio. It handles high volumes of fixing without losing efficacy quickly. Very satisfied with the performance.

Fast acting and efficient
Clears the film much faster than my previous brand. The analytical grade purity seems to make a difference in the longevity of the solution.
Q: How should I dispose of the used fixer solution?
A: Used fixer contains silver halides and should not be poured down the drain. Please collect it and take it to a local hazardous waste disposal facility or a photo lab that accepts spent chemicals.
Q: What is the recommended fixing time for 35mm film?
A: For 35mm film, we recommend a fixing time of 5 to 7 minutes at 20°C with standard agitation. Always follow the double-fixing rule for archival stability.
Q: Can this be used for color film processing?
A: No, this F5 Fixer is specifically formulated for black and white film and photo paper. Color processes require different chemical compositions.
Q: Does this come with mixing instructions?
A: Yes, detailed mixing and usage instructions are printed on the label and included as a leaflet inside the box.
Q: Is the bottle made of plastic or glass?
A: To ensure chemical stability and protect the solution from light degradation, the product is packaged in an amber glass bottle.
