Frank, I've recently done quite a lot of Veradon toning over the last 6 mnth and found that if i'm not careful, the print can tend to lose contrast and go more 'milk' chocolate in colour during washing and even after drying, over time. Going out on a limb here I think the reason is that Veradon toning is normally halted at the colour desired, resulting in only partial silver halide conversion.FrankB said:I'm thinking of having a play with split sepia toning; full bleach then a light tone.

Ahuh great suggestion. Veridon definately does continue to tone during washing Ann. So using a stop bath would be easier than trying to pull the print early and having to anticipate further toning.ann said:Wonder if Veradon is similar to Kodak Brown toner that will continue to tone while washing? I don"t know, but it makes sense as it is in the same family. With KBT a "stop bath" of sodium sulphite, or HCA is recommend to stop the toning process before washing.
Perhaps that would work with Veradon?
