    Cool Maximum exposure times for fiber based papers?

    Does anyone have any pointers as to which fiber based papers have extended exposure times. For example Forte polygrade specs state a max of 2 minutes, which is fine if just printing with "normal" times and you can then get the print straight into the developer bath. I have about 5 minutes of enlarger and safe light before I get the fully exposed papers into the dev! I am thinking of dropping the safe light and working in blackout mode, haven't tried this yet I am just thought maybe it might extend the "fogging times?
