Talk:Collodion

To prevent leaving behind fingerprints
In the Spider novel The Dictator of Crime, while in disguise as a street ruffian, the Spider (Richard Wentworth) smeared his hands with collodion to prevent leaving behind fingerprints. Would this work?

 * Collodion is also mentioned as a fingerprint preventer in Robert Heinlein's book The Unpleasant Profession of Jonathan Hoag 47.39.30.196 (talk) 05:01, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

Toxic?
I'm not sure if this chemical should be labeled as "toxic". The NFPA diamond heath warning is only a 2, which is "Intense or continued but not chronic exposure could cause temporary incapacitation or possible residual injury" according to the wikipedia entry on the diamond. It is toxic like ethanol is toxic, or ether is toxic, that if you take too much, or take a certain amount over a long time, then it is toxic. The MSDS lists a fairly large LD50 for this solution. It seems the main toxicity from this solution is the ether and the alcohol used in it. 147.155.182.25 (talk) 03:25, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Photography (also known as the Wet Plate Collodion process)
What does this image: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Summer_guitar.jpg have to do with Colldion? Unless a reasonable explanation can be given I suggest it be removed from the article. Plhofmei (talk) 05:35, 22 July 2008 (UTC) Quinn Jacobsen, the photographer is a wet plate artist. It is listed as an ambrotype--thus qualifies to be under collodion —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rainbow634 (talk • contribs) 11:47, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
