            I used this to make Cyanotypes with my class at a 4-H camp. They were a huge hit!

              I use this chemical for making Cyanotypes, and it was sent in a black bag, which was great since this chemical in powder form is light sensitive. I have no complaints about this product.

                I use the product mixing a solution to be used for cyanotypes. The chemical is flawless. Nothing bad to say, A++ ferric ammonium citrate, will mix again.
