Product Description
Pyrocat-HD in Glycol Film Developer is a high acutance developer formulated by Sandy King as an alternative to other pyrogallol based staining developers. Pyrocat-HD gives negatives of fine grain and full emulsion speed and is suitable for all types of development methods, including rotary, normal agitation, minimal agitation and stand development. Packaging in glycol stabilizes the formula to give a very long shelf life and long term consistency.

Pyrocat with sheet film.
Posted by Robert Langham III on 2nd Dec 2015
using Xtol with good results but heard so much about Pyrocat that I wanted to try it. I tested, shot a few small runs of film and tested it. Quite a remarkable developer. The negatives look thinner but print well. By the time I got back from an Artist-in-Residence at Petrified Forest I was using it routinely. Ran my whole set of negatives in Pyrocat HD. It's a slightly different palette than anything I have used before. Too bad we can't upload examples. If you are on the fence, give it a try. Only downside was using gloves...I tray process by shuffling. No surges. I also had to get used to mixing using syringes for the 1:1:100.
Had Solution B precipitate fall out of solution. Sandy King said it was probably carbonate. I warmed the bottle in hot water and stirred it back in. No problems. I agitate it a little more often now. Examples on RobertLangham.blogspot

Great Developer
Posted by Rick Olson on 25th Mar 2015
I have been using Pyrocat-HD for years and it's a great developer, with the ability to adjust dilution of the A, B and water to need. Also works great for stand and minimal agitation techniques for roll and sheet film. I use this developer for 35mm up to 8x20 sheet film, along with a 1:1:200 dilution for some X-Ray film I am experimenting with. In Glycol, it lasts a long time.
