So im using the Illford Selenium toner 1 L bottle. Mixing 1-3.This makes 4 L.(says the directions on the bottle).. So I wanted to use 1/2 of the bottle so i measured out a 1/2 L from the bottle then added 1 and 1/2 L of water. Is this ok or should i mix the whole bottle. (not sure how fast i am going to use it up,or how long the solution stays good,that's why i mixed just 1/2 bottle)
I attempted to tone Kentmere Fiber Base,It toned a little making the blacks blacker but don't see the classic Selenium tone,(the whites didn't change much) I left the print in for 1 hour. Does Selenium take a long time?,or should i mix the whole bottle? What am i doing wrong? BTW its my first time with this toner,Thanks for any help.
