Trying E6 with C41 developer

#1
Given a load of Jessops E6 Slide process kits I tested the Chemicals. The Colour Developer Part 2 was completely Dark Purple and useless. There was some 'Formalin' Stabiliser -- a Carcenogen ! And as I have had 5 Cancers already I did not open that ! I tried using the 1st Developer, my USED C41 Colour Developer and the kit Bleach-Fix. I had to try twice to get enough colour development time as first half of film was under-developed badly. There was also a Bleach-Fix stain so tried a second Bleach-Fix -- looked 'Good at first but on SCANNING showed up some residual stain still ! Film was 1992 Dated Fuji VELVIA 50 in my Mamiya C220 + 135mm f4.5 'Blue-Dot' Sekors I will post results in the Group Photos

i understand your stance against Formaldehyde, but E-6 film really needs it to remain stable in the long run. Maybe you can ask someone around you to run this process step for you?
