Ilford Ilfotol Overview

Ilford Ilfotol is a non-ionic wetting agent used as a final rinse before drying films.

Ilfotol can be used in all manual and machine processes to aid rapid, even drying and so greatly reduce the risk of drying marks being formed.

Ilfotol can also be used as a final rinse before drying fibre based prints, again it promotes rapid, even drying. Additionally it can be used to clean glass and plastic lenses and filters and as an anti-static treatment.

Can this be used to clean droplets off of older film that wasn't properly rinsed?
Asked by: Haig
Yes, if heavily diluted but I would recommend just using water and a pec pad to clean up drying marks

It works just like the Kodak Photo-flo?

It works just like the Kodak Photo-flo?
Asked by: Giovanna
This will work like the Kodak Photo-Flo 200 Solution (16 oz, 05/23 Expiration), B&H # KOPF200PE, though only for black & white film and paper. There is this as an alternative to have color processing in addition to black & white processing: Kodak Photo-Flo 200 Solution (16 oz), B&H # KOPF200P https://bhpho.to/46j5bAO

question

I've seen some include ILFOTOL in their home-made vinyl record cleaning fluids. Can I assume it to be safe and effective, combined with alcohol, as many record cleaners contain, anyway ? I don't know if ILFOTOL is alcohol-based, anyway.
Asked by: Anonymous
There is no alcohol in Ilfotol. I am using for the same purpose in a Spin Clean record cleaner. Alcohol should not be used on vinyl as it will eventually make vinyl brittle. Recommended mixture = 2 drops to 1 gal distilled water plus .4-.5 oz distilled white vinegar. That's all.

B&H has history of not posting critical reviews. So no, I don't feel like assisting B&H as a result. Cheers!

question

Can this be used for both B&W and Color Negatives?
Asked by: Jason T.
Yes, should be safe for both. It's basically a detergent.
