I recently switched to Agfa Viradon New, because it was easier to obtain and
I ran out of Kodak Brown Toner. Yikes, they are more different than I
remember from the old Viradon.
Viradon New (1+24) seems to 'stick' to the FB print. The yellow 'skin'
washes off fairly rapidly, but this never happened with KBT. Also, a white
solid deposit develops rapidly to a much heavier extend than with KBT. Worst
of all, Viradon after-tones quite heavily in the final wash in spite of a
2-minute treatment in HCA.
I ended up changing the dilution to 1+48 and toned for not much more than 45
seconds. The MG-IV prints are still clearly toned. I'm concerned to dilute
it further and the after-toning is had to control.
Any experiences to be shared?
