Rodinal is good for Tri-X. I prefer a staining developer
like PMK,
DiXactol, Exactol or Precysol. PMK and DiXactol require a
bit more work
since the developer is saved and used to strengthen the
staining after
fixing. Exactol and Precysol have no such requirements.

The use of Pyro type developers as an after treatment
may simply produce an overall stain rather then an imagewise
stain. The stain is produced by reaction products of
development. Since no development takes place in fixed film
any stain will be an overall one which will lower the
contrast of the stain image. Negatives treated in staining
developers should have _no_ stain in the highlights.
