Polaroids are chemical time bombs. The dyes used are notoriously unstable. Old photo colorization techniques are often used to 're-dye' these images digitally.

If you have instant film from the 70s or 80s, use an online photo restoration service now before the chemical reaction completes and the image turns completely yellow.

Secure your history.

Apply these archival standards to your own family collection.
