Flexicolor C-41 Fixer, Fiber B+W prints

Is anyone using Flexicolor C-41 fixer for B+W fiber prints? If so what is the dilution, and time that you are using?
I have been using it at 1:8 dilution with B+W film. Clears film quickly, very economical.
Thank you

I'm using it for everything at 1+9, or double the recommended dilution for use with color negative (C-41) materials. It clears a piece of Foma film in 30-35 seconds. Kodak films take a little longer, and that's to be expected. Foma films clear very quickly in just about any fixer I've tried. I usually fix my prints in it for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Seems to be working just fine.
