Has anyone ever used Polaroid 689 film to do image transfers? If so, how does it differ from using 669. Thanks

I was told (from Polaroid) that all films that end in 9 will work...

I have been working on the transfers with 689 film. I was getting nowhere and decided to try leaving the picture to develop longer before peeling the two sides apart. It never occurred to me, the 689 has a suggested developement time of 90 seconds, not 60. so it is working out now, little by little. practice with longer developement times.
