Distilled Water May Be Used In Small Appliances

Solid construction and works well. Used this for small appliances in the kitchen.

Used during hurricane Helene to power appliances with a generator.

I used this to develop Tmax and Kentmere, and quite flawlessly with a nice rinse after and distilled water before drying. I even used to push Not one but two stops! Results were great.

I've had issues with water spotting even with using distilled water. Now I've got none. Great product and a huge step forward for me when developing film.

I have been using a Dot Line squeegee for about 5 years now and mine finally broke and needs to be replaced after hundreds of rolls of film.  Naysayers will tell you that rubber squeegees scratch film, but you know what they say about people who blame their tools.  Film drying and prevention of water spots is greatly aided by use of a rubber squeegee.  In some areas, with some water supplies, one may not feel the need to use one.  And thats fine.  But if you keep getting water spots on your film, even when doing a final rinse using Photoflo or LFN in distilled water, a rubber squeegee could be the solution.  When I moved to an area with fortified water, this squeegee was my savior.  Does it scratch film?  When used improperly, yes, it sure does.  All one needs to do is soak the squeegee in fresh, distilled water while youre prepping the rest of your set up.  Maybe 15 minutes?  Longer cant hurt.  You want the blades to be nice and soft and very wet.  A dry, hard blade should never touch your film.  Then, before using the squeegee, wipe the blades very firmly with your fingers to remove any particulate.  Dip it in the water again and then GENTLY squeeze the blades against your film so that they just KISS the surface.  DO NOT CINCH DOWN ON THE FILM.  The idea is to run wet, clean rubber blades just over the surface of the film without dragging any hard material which will certainly scratch.  You may, on occasion, make a fine scratch on underexposed or thin negatives if you arent very careful.  As a shooter who scans, Id rather clone out a small, fine scratch in these rare conditions than be constantly cloning out or re-rinsing my film to address water spots on a regular basis.  If youre making optical darkroom prints, maybe something more delicate, with even less potential for neg damage should be used.  But I tell you, most of the hate on this tool is not warranted.

Combine a few drops of this stuff with distilled water to produce the perfect solution to rinse your newly washed vinyl records. Leaves the record surface clean and spot-free. Use scratch-proof lens cleaning wipes to dry the record before playing.

I use distilled water for mixing and this requires a very easy temperature to attain. Dissolves well within a couple of minutes and has (in my opinion), low odor.

I find these tanks are a great value and so useful. I use them for fixer, stop bath, developers and one for distilled water. With the floating lid, the solutions keep months on end. The spigot makes it very convenient to fill developing tanks straight from the storage tanks.

This developer is affordable, mixes easily and is very flexible. I recommend using distilled water to make the stock solution; hard water may cause it go bad prematurely.

I use these pads, dipped in distilled water and Edwal LPN, to squeegee off the water from the back of black and white films as they're hanging to dry. It gets rid of extra water and prevents water spots, without scratching the film. They're pretty low-tech items, but they work.
