I'm ready to order more paper and have been using Ilford WT and Neutral RC when not printing on FB. Does anyone have any advice on other RC papers to try for warmtones? How does Fomatone RC compare to Iflord WT RC? Does it have an incorporated developer? Does it tone well? Or, am I better off just toning Ilford MGIV RC for warmer prints? Thanks for any advice. I'm just feeling the itch for something new, but I don't want to waste $100 on a box of Fomatone only to be disappointed (I could get a smaller pack to try, I guess, but I'm looking to stock up).

It's always wise with a 'new' product (to you) to try first and stock up later. It will still be there when you have run your tests on the small packet.

It is a very warm tone emulsion. Amazing in lith developer too. Tones beautifully.
