[pure-silver] Re: ilford box mis-labelled

There has been discussion on APUG that Ilford has been changing the paper base of WT to a more neutral tone. Make a print, process it as usual, then tone it in relatively concentrated known good KRST. If it's mis-labeled MGIV it will barely budge in color to an slight purple, no matter how long you soak it. If it goes reddish to chocolaty brown, it is MGWT.

Just wondering if anybody has ever seen this: I got a box of 8x10 Ilford multigrade warm tone, but it's not warm tone. I have another box of 11x14 Ilford warm tone, and you can see clearly that it has a brownish cast, whereas the paper from the other box is bluish. I guess it got mixed up at the factory or something.
Anybody else notice anything like this? I looked online and couldn't find any info about it.
