hypoclear packets are possibly still useable. maybe mix it a little
stronger than recommended and extend your wash time to be safe. some
people don't even use hypoclear.

and yes, we are using 1:4 vinegar stop. normal stop bath is acetic
acid and water == vinegar! it should be replaced when it starts to
feel greasy (alkaline) when rubbed between your fingertips.
