Edwal G or TST paper developer

Who uses Edwal G or TST paper developers?

 

[Richard Wasserman]

I used TST about 30 years ago with Agfa Brovira paper and liked it a lot. I now mix my own developers and don't know how it will be with modern papers, but I think it's worth a try. I have fond memories of it and Brovira, I guess I'm getting old...

I've not used either of the two. I'm tempted to try TST.
It is billed as a Contrast Control Developer. Edwal TST
is composed of an A and B part. Perhaps it is similar
to A. Adam's A and B version of Ansco 130? IIRC,
it cost enough to contain the Glycine. Dan

MAS Amidol with a water bath for contrast control.

Edwal chems are all good.

I think I will try both, I now use Zonal Pro but I like the idea have some control over contrast with graded paper, or adding a 1/2 to full paper grade with VC.

Some may be overlooking a good thing. A. Adams had
at least two Contrast Control developers at hand. I've
done some tests using Home-Brew Beer's CCD with
multi-grade results on a graded paper. A start has
been made testing two VC papers. Dan
