Fogged photo paper: TRASH or TREASURE?! (Part 2 - bleach)
Ойын-сауық
In part 2 of my series on dealing with fogged photographic paper, I explore the technique of bleaching prints as a very powerful but also finicky and labour-intensive remedy. It definitely does work though ' and opens up creative possibilities far beyond simply de-fogging the paper!

Interesting series. If you bleach a photo you should re-fix it or silver halides can be an issue later on. I wonder if the tone difference was due to not fixing it after bleach.
Very interesting; Many thanks for Your effort; I'm looking forward for Lith printing video. With best regards. Jiri

Thank you for watching! Lith episode is 'in the oven', so to speak - coming soon!
Thanks for the entertaining and informative videos. Inspired by part one and two I tested 8 boxes of paper last night - all different types and manufacturers ranging from 15 to 50 years old. Of the 8 boxes 3 were fogged but the oldest was just fine. Now I'm waiting for the next video.

Ah, goes to show that age isn't necessarily the main indicator of how useable the paper is - storage conditions have at least as much influence. Lith printing episode is coming very soon - finally!
amazing

Fascinating! I can’t wait to get back into darkroom printing (soon) you just opened up a hallway full of doors, each leading down more hallways full of doors...

Hi, Thanks nice video, very well explained !!! Can I use a C41 color bleach/blix as a bleach?

Thank you for the kind words! As for the C-41 bleach/blix, that is a good question - and one that falls outside my grasp of chemistry, unfortunately... I do know that currently produced C-41 bleach/blix solutions usually do not contain potassium ferricyanide, so there is a different bleaching agent involved.
Next time try this. Develope unexposed paper, bleach away all the fog, wash. Expose the paper to your image and develope, fix normally.
