I read that phenidone may be substituted (at 1/10th) for metol. I'm especially curious about this for WD2H+? What differences might I expect from this substitution?

Thank you all.

Quick Answer:

Eric, in that Formula (WD2H+)...
I really doubt, that you would notice any difference. It is already quite 'High Contrast'.

You 'might' get a very small increase in Film Speed... But, I honestly think, that that is about it.
*However, you might want to research the 'Superadditivity' of Phenidone/Pyrogallol Developers (M. Levy).

Thank-you! -Tim.
