Hi all,
Now that I ruined about 20 prints because I used acetic acid as a fixer
and then toned them in Selenium toner, I don't want to throw them out
but see what I can salvage, maybe do something with them.
First off, Should I fix the prints properly in order to use them for
other things.
Several ideas I want to try.
Bleaching (partially) the prints and then leaving them like that, not
toned. Should I do something special to stabilize the bleaching
process, stopping it. Would fixing (hypo) do the job?
Can I retone the prints... bleach and then sepia, yellow, brown, blue
toner???? retone in Selenium???
Is there something that I can put on the paper in order to inhibit
bleaching in that particular spot. An example off the top of my head,
if I dripped wax (x) in certain areas of the paper, would bleaching be
inhibited under the wax (x). Is there an (x) that will inhibit the
bleaching? Something that I can write with on the paper and then the
bleaching would be inhibited under the writing?
Any comments and ideas are most welcome.
Cheers,
Bogdan
