That won't be happening. Can't take the chemicals. I'm sure at some
point I must have heard about the death of K-14 - but all I remembered
was Fairlawn closing - the only Kodak lab I would use back in the day.
My darkroom hasn't been a darkroom since the late 90's.
Oh well, it's probably just garbage anyway
but thanks for the formula

I unearthed an exposed 36 frame roll of K-64 (not PKR-64) recently. I
haven't shot chrome since , gee, the 2004 GFM meet-up. I expect this

Have a vague recollection of having lost a roll that I thought there was
something important on - could this be it?? (dangerous thought.)
So suggestions for where I could get this processed would be much
appreciated. Just have to see... it may all be boring "information"
shots - a partially exposed roll only, or even an unexposed roll that
accidently got pulled abck into it's shell inside the camera because
of that little button on the bottom of the LX got pressed or bumped into
in error.
In a way, while it would be nice if there was a decent useable image
satisfyling my curiosity about what is there is more important -
a missing link :-) ?

Kodachrome starts out life as a B&W film with dye couplers (but no
colour dyes) in the emulsion. The first developer for Kodachrome was
nothing more than a slightly altered D-76, and this is what I would use
to process your film.
As for time and temp, certainly a fairly low temperature (though not to
low, D-76 becomes relatively inert below 16ºC) to keep fogging down.
I'm thinking D76 1:2, at 18ºC for 12 minutes or so would be a good
starting time. Do a clip test to see what it looks like and go from there.
