If this is standard photoflow, the Photographers' Formulary sells user reasonable amounts.

Hi Mark,

Not sure if it's economical but perhaps we could share: you get one shipment, take your part and send me the rest (perhaps combined with our UK print exchange). Is it the right version of Tergitol though? Have you tried/considered to get the Edwal LFN that Paul mentions? Seems pretty normal stuff but so far I only found US sources. I've found a local source for Photo-flo. Hope they have it in stock.

Joost
