    I have the vaguest memory that there is a Vanadium toner that produces yellow. I am remembering something about a green toner that used it. I may be confusing it with something else. Too many of my books are in storage, very frustrating.

DEAR IBRAHIM,

It is driving me NUTS that I cannot remember the name of that special toner that has three different bleaches and three different toners which can create a wide range of colors, one known as "Golden Sunshine" which is pretty close to yellow but more gold. I have used it and love it!It is in Tim Rudman's THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S TONING BOOK as well as in old copies of the Photo Lab Index.

CHEERS!

   I wrote before mentioning T-7a. I really meant Kodak T-8 Polysulfide toner. Kodak Brown Toner was probably about the same stuff.

   Polytoner was a combination of Brown toner and Rapid Selenium toner. Here are a couple of old formulas for it.
