I shot a few 35mm rolls to get a feel for it.  It worked OK, but the IR
effect I got wan't quite as intense as I wanted.  I did get some
reasonably nice images with it though.

I only tried the #25 red.  A deeper red filter would probably increase the
IR affect I just didn't have one to test.

I'll have to check my notes, but I seem to remember that I liked a
slightly lower EI than the recommended value.  I think I also developed
for about 7 minutes using HC110 dilution B, and felt that the negatives
were a bit contrasty.  Like I said, I'll have to check my notes.
