Indicator-Stop Bath

WMI Indicator-Stop Bath is a low-odor acetic stop bath.
Used in photographic processing to stop the action of a developer on a film, plate, or paper. It helps to prolong the life of the fixer solution by reducing the carryover of excess developer (alkaline) into the fixer (acidic) and to maintain the activity of the fixer.
