Color-timing is performed with alternative 1st Developers to achieve full creative control of your slides.

MIXING STOCK SOLUTION:

1. Place 14 oz. (414 ml) of 140ºF (60ºC) water into a clean glass or plastic pitcher.
2. Use a clean plastic stir stick or the TCS-1000 to circulate the liquid.
3. While circulating, add the contents of the bottle marked "PART A".
4. Continue circulating, add the contents of the bottle marked "PART B".
5. Continue circulating, add the contents of the bottle marked "PART C".

Store mixed solution in a tightly capped storage container with air inside for 2-4 months. Aerate frequently. Oxidation encourages activity of bleaches. When film wont clear after 10 min retire chemistry and re-fix film.

Bleaches&Fixer Bath: Stock > 6-10min @ 75 -104°f (23-40°C)
This is a process-to-completion step. Time is minimum for completion.

Maintaining temperature is not essential beyond pouring in the 1st developer. When a temperature control bath is not available, simply preheat the 1st Developer +2ºF warmer, and the other baths will automatically process-to-completion as they cool down. Only the 1st developer is time and temperature critical because it controls contrast and color.
