Hi All,<br /><br />I have an unmixed gallon kit of Diafine for processing a lot of rolls, just got new plastic gallon photo bottles to store it this last weekend..&nbsp; I need the gallon capacity for very large tanks.<br /><br />Recently I have read a few references to Diafine suddenly dying after a while.&nbsp; Anybody care to comment on that?&nbsp; Back in the seventies, I had a quart I used for at least a year before I threw it out &nbsp; I have read if you take care of it, it will last until it completely dries up. What does everybody think?&nbsp;

I have a gallon of Diafine stock that I&#039;ve been working off of for the past 15 months on pushed Tri-X. No issue yet. although I don&#039;t use it often.

Has anybody here tried Fuji Neopan 400 and 800 in Diafine?&nbsp; I&#039;ve heard that is an excellent combination.

I&#039;ve done Tri-X, which is good...HP5+, which is bad...and ERA100, which is okay.<br /><br />No Neopan yet, but I don&#039;t even know where to get any locally. I do have some 6-year old rolls of SS in the freezer, tho
