I've gone on an internet rampage recently regarding troubled processes with Pyrocat HD, Kentmere Bromide graded paper, and Wimberly WD2D+. The one thing they all have in common is highly desireable results when they work right. Another thing they all have in common is that I used TF-4 fixer (at 1+3 strength) in the process when I encountered the problems I usually don't get. I generally use IIford Rapid, Non Hardening Fixer - (and will probably return to the Ilford as I sort out my problems above).
Does anyone have a take on the 'process neutrality' of TF-4 fixer? I hadn't heard of TF-4 until two years ago, and am now starting to wonder if there are some under-recognized qualities, restrictions, or concerns about TF-4 and how it interacts with other parts of the process?
