I forgot: I used 200ml of stock Perceptol per roll.
Robert Grasing was right: 50 and 64 are fine for condenser enlargers.
Someone else said FP4+ seems to retain more of its speed in Perceptol than HP5+ does. I agree: 64-80 in D-76 and 50-64 in Perceptol. That's cool.

Today after contact prints:
I reach 50 in Perceptol stock, and 80 in Perceptol 1+2.
Ilford MGW in Dektol, filter 4 for overcast light, filter 2 for direct sunlight.
Quite a surprise: I got the same speed for D-76 1+1 and Perceptol 1+2.
And I like Perceptol's bright middle grays and image structure better. What a great developer!
