Bostick & Sullivan revolutionized and democratized the wetplate process in 2010, when we introduced the first complete tintype and ambrotype kit with pre-dissolved, ready to use collodion chemistry! A complete starter set, with all the essentials needed to pour plates, sensitize in silver nitrate, develop, fix, and varnish!
Our kits now include ready-to-use collodion that is mixed fresh when shipped. If you won’t be using the kit for a while, a 2-part Bromo-Iodiozer and Collodion, USP kit is available for substitution at your request.
Due to the volatile nature of collodion and collodion products we have a 6-month guarantee on all collodion processes and products. Replacements outside of this guarantee will be evaluated case by case.
Most collodion chemistry is considered hazardous material and must be shipped UPS Ground. Please select this option when you select shipping at checkout.
Alaskan, Hawaiian, and Peurto Rican customers: Ups Ground is not an option for your states despite our website offering you a rate. Please email or call us so we can get you an accurate shipping quote on your order.
International Customers: Dangerous goods shipping is available via FedEx International Priority service for a $250 fee plus Express UPS delivery service. Shipping charges to Alaska/Hawaii, Europe, Japan and Korea typically vary between $400-$600.
