The UP-2 universal developer as a ready working solution, in its modified version: for paper and, when needed, for film. The same formula as my reagent kit, already mixed.
What UP-2 is
A universal metol/hydroquinone developer from the Soviet formulary, intended for both paper and negative. On paper it gives a neutral tone and normal contrast; on film it behaves as a moderately active negative developer.
Ready-mixed or the reagent kit
I sell both. The reagent kit is cheaper and more compact but has to be weighed and dissolved; this solution goes straight into the tray. Same formula, same result.
Questions and answers
How does the «m» differ from plain UP-2?
It is a modified version of the base formula. In practice the difference is in solution stability; the print character is the same.
