Long story short - 17nm offshore, model doing underwater acrobatics, Nikonos III flooded, devastated photographer as water poured out of the camera, nightmare developing wet film. Result = 🫣

Masking prints for split toning
Unfortunately this particular masking agent didn’t work, toner worked its way through, so back to the drawing board!

Mixed lith dev degrades over a session, results change from print to print, but that is also the charm of the process. Often the best print/colour comes from nearly dead dev as degradation byproducts alter the reactions. That’s why Ppl keep old brown, to add to fresh dev and bring colour faster.

Yes, at least the SE5 version.
Search the #lith tag for other lith printers
Why do you need bottles? Lith degrades once mixed, try 20+20 A:B and add straight to 960ml water
Depends what paper you have though. Most modern paper doesn’t lith well
