Because great prints start with precise control.
Ilford Ilfostop is an odorless, citric acid-based stop bath that halts the development process immediately and evenly. Designed for use with black and white film and paper, this 500ml concentrate keeps your workflow clean, consistent, and reliable—helping extend the life of your fixer and safeguard your results.
Why Ilfostop earns a place in every darkroom:
- Instant Development Stop – Stops developer action on contact, preventing overdevelopment and preserving tonal accuracy.
- Low-Odor Formula – Uses citric acid instead of acetic acid for a far more pleasant and less irritating darkroom experience.
- Extends Fixer Life – Neutralizes developer before it reaches your fixer, keeping your fixer cleaner and more effective for longer.
- Concentrated Value – Makes up to 5 liters of working solution, offering great value and efficiency for regular printers.
- Ideal for Film and Paper – Versatile enough for all black and white photographic processes.
Ilfostop brings precision and peace of mind to your darkroom. It’s a small step with a big impact—ensuring every image you print reflects your vision, not your chemistry
