Jeff, Kath and I used a lot of Verichrome back in the late 70's and the presoak always came out colored. Not to worry. It's a real nice film. We stopped using it when it disappered, glad to see it's back. If you own an old Kodak Tourist (not the one with 12.5 lens) run a roll through it. Man! talk about sharp negs and a long scale!
