LPD is a great all-around paper developer. It works well at numerous dilutions and has a long-lasting tray life. I highly recommend it.

Works well.

Prefer cans of powder but works the same.

See any errors on this page?

whats the difference with the liquid and powder ...

whats the difference with the liquid and powder version of the developer?
Asked by: Brian
The powder and liquid versions of this developer have the same properties. However, the powder version would require the addition of water at a temperature of 80-90° F to completely dissolve it while the liquid version can be diluted with water at temperature between 60-80° F.

question

When dilution is suggested as 1:3, is that 1+3? or diluted 1 to become 3 times as much? Is the final amount 4 or 3?
Asked by: Bruce
1:3 is sometimes written as 1+3. Both mean 1 part concentrate mixed with 3 parts of water. You may also see, 1 in 4, which also means 1part of concentrate plus 3 parts water to give a TOTAL of 4 parts of diluted (ready to use) developer.
