developer effluent discharge by as much as 50 percent.
Lower replenishment rates mean less chemical mixing and

tank solution from developer replenisher.
KODAK FLEXICOLOR Bleach III NR Replenisher
For use in minilabs using Process C-41B or C-41, this bleach

solution.

KODAK FLEXICOLOR Final Rinse and Replenisher
This final rinse is designed with state-of-the-art surfactants
to reduce deposits and drying marks on processed color
negative films. It also reduces the potential for biological
growth in the mixed solution. This means less maintenance
and less frequent dumping of working tanks. Because the
new final rinse contains no stabilizing agent, labs will not
need to provide formaldehyde training or do the associated
record keeping required by OSHA guidelines. You can use
the final rinse in minilabs that operate with a wash or a
washless cycle.
Note: Do not process films of older design that require a
stabilizing agent for image stability. These films are
KODAK VERICOLOR III Film, VERICOLOR Slide
Film / SO-279/5072, and VERICOLOR Print Film 4111.
Process these films only in a processor that uses
FLEXICOLOR Stabilizer III and Replenisher. Films of more
recent design, such as KODAK GOLD, MAX, ROYAL
GOLD, PROFESSIONAL PORTRA, PROFESSIONAL
EKTAPRESS, and PROFESSIONAL SUPRA Films require
no stabilization for image stability. They will have optimum
image-stability performance when processed with
FLEXICOLOR Final Rinse and Replenisher.
Available in sizes to make 5 and 10 litres and 12.5 and
75 U.S. gallons.
