This is the only fixer I've ever used, but it's performed perfectly every time. It's also worth remembering that fixer, can be reused and replenished with smaller volumes to keep the blend fresh in a separate bottle. So one of these should last a good while. The specific details can be found on Ilford's website. If you really want to maximize the life of your fixer, you should use Ilford stop bath as well, since it does a slightly better job of neutralizing the developer, again, not required but if you're really particular about your chemicals that is the best practice.

Old reliable. High quality and less toxic than some other options on the market. Best overall price.
Old reliable. The only fixer I use because it doesn't require adding toxic hardener. If you're worried about being brand loyal, don't be. I use Ilford fixer with different brands of developers and stop bath. It's fine. It lasts a long while. I mix 200ml of fixer with 800ml of water to make my working solution for film fixing and use it up a quart at a time. I can usually develop at least 25 rolls of film before it saturates with silver. I use Edwal hypo-chek to determine when the silver saturation has taken place. So for me, a liter of Ilford rapid fixer gets me about 125 rolls of film developed. Probably more, honestly.

The best of the best when it comes to film fixer
The best of the best when it comes to film fixer. Keep in fridge and an opened bottle will last years. Follow instructions and expect archival fixing of films.

Love this stuff
I shoot a lot of strange films and process "found film". Inexpensive enough to use one-shot for iffy films that might contaminate it. Ilford Rapid Fixer has never let me down.

Question & Answer
Question :
Paper or for film? Reusable? Color or b&w?
Answer :
For film and paper, black and white. It can be reused.
Question :
I am looking for a solution to my old photos fading away. Will this product stabilize them? If not, can you recommend a product that will save photos
Answer :
The fixer will not work for stabilizing old photos. It only works in the darkroom during processing. The best possible way to preserve and restore your photos is to scan them with your iPhone (preferably!) or an Android phone. Then you can restore most of their color and depth with apps right on your phone. Here is a link to an article reviewing the 7 best scanning apps for smart phones: https://mashtips.com/ios-apps-scan-old-photos/
There are also photo labs on line that will do the work for you. Just do a Google search for "photo restoration labs online" and you will find them. Once you have restored digital copies stored on a hard drive, you can make as many good prints as you desire. The originals will keep fading over time and there is little you can do to stop that process. Keeping photos in a closed album will retard the fading process, but eventually there will be no discernible image remaining, usually within 20 to 100 years, depending on the archival quality of the original. The least expensive prints fade the fastest. If you need more guidance, you can email me at: matthew@studio-lts.com Best regards, Matthew Yrigoyen
