[pure-silver] Re: Toning Question

So, how much do most people dilute KBT? I didn't see the dilution listed on the bottle.



It would be best to place the print in a stop bath of sodium sulfite after toning as it will continue to tone as it washes.


You could also use a strong bath of HCA.

This holds true for Kodak Brown Toner as well.

Thanks Per. I am going to see what my local shop has in terms of toner. I'll simply experiment.

One question though, does the toner stop working quickly after it's been
rinsed off, or do it keep working for a while after? I want know how q uickly I
