[pure-silver] Re: KRST

Back in the 60's, the portrait studio (chain) lab where I worked used KBT and KRST mixed together (unfortunately, I don't recall proportions) for warm reddish-brown medium tones and colder shadows. As I recall, this was used only with Kodak's Ektalure paper, which was fairly warm to begin with.

I haven't tried using KBT first followed by KRST and don't know what that would give me or why it would be better or worse for archival purposes.

I've done this. Once I tried all the four combinations of brown toner and 
selenium toner:

-each one alone -- we know the effects.
-KRST first followed by brown toner -- the color of KRST result but less 
'golden' and slightly more 'brown' than KRST alone.
-brown toner first followed by selenium (KRST) -- appearance of final
result closer to brown toner alone, i.e. the result looks more like brown 
toner but moved in the direction of the appearance of KRST.
