250ml of shellac varnish. Shellac was one of the most commonly used varnishes for wet plate in the 19th century. This is the classical Shellac formula but filtered with activated carbon to lighten its color. The result is less darkening and a more similar color to the unvarnished plate.
Glossy finish, but a little less than sandarac rubber.
The use of alcohol based varnishes is suitable for freshly made collodion. If your plate has been shot with an old collodion we recommend you to choose an acrylic varnish to prevent dissolving the image. You could also seal your plate with a glass dome and Canada Balsam.
Our varnishes are sold in borosilicate glass bottles, which are easy to clean and more resistant than regular glass to impact and temperature changes.
If you have trouble with this varnish dissolving your images, adding a few ml of distilled water to the varnish could solve this problem.
480ml of collodion. All of our collodion formulas are supplied inside wide-mouth borosilicate bottles to allow an easier pour and avoid the aging of the collodion as long as possible.
The Quick Clear formula contains 2 salts: ammonium iodide and cadmium bromide. It has a great tonal range, similar to the Old Workhorse, but it’s one stop slower than Lea #7 and It also has a shorter shelf life.
This formula is completely clear when mixed. It could be used next day, even hours after mixing it, although we recommend letting it ripen for a week.

It is cloudy when mixed and needs between a week and a month to rinse and for impurities to precipitate to the bottom of the bottle. Decanting is necessary: you may want to buy a 500ml bottle for this purpose. It can be used shady without too much trouble.
All our collodions are freshly mixed when we receive an order.
1000ml of a 9% solution of silver nitrate and distilled water. The solution is ready to use: It has been previously activated and you can start sensitizing your plates right away.
Our silver nitrate baths are sold within borosilicate glass bottles, which are more resistant than regular glass to impact and temperature changes.
Silver nitrate is a corrosive heavy metal salt and it can cause burns in contact with your skin or any other mucous membrane of your body.
