UVP X is a modern collodion formula developed for speed, long life, tonal range, and usability.  It is used for making for tintypes, ambrotypes, and glass negatives. UVP X is a cadmium-based formula that ages slowly, so you will have consistent results over a long period of time. Stored in a cool dark place, this collodion will maintain good working properties for 6-12 months.

UVP X is specifically formulated with a slightly higher bromide ratio, which aids in achieving good tonal range in portraits. Also, it is easy to see the image during development, which helps achieve the most from the collodion. It’s the fastest of the super stable formulas (Lea Formula 3, UVP-4, UVP-X).

    I learned what plate with Old dead Brad, and liked my results but when I switched to UVP X I loved how my image appeared in the development phase better than I had other collodions! A+

    I had only used ODB, but tried the X and absolutely LOVE it combined with the Iron Potassium Sulfate.

    Since finding UVP-X, I have never looked back! Fast-speed, quick-appearing, good shelf life, and consistent. I’m so grateful that in 2023, we still have a chemist making innovations in the field of wet collodion photography. Thanks Brian!
