Would like some insight into some issues I am having with Kallitypes. I'm using the B&S kit chemicals and am getting some staining in the non-image areas and the back of some prints. I have tried clearing the prints for a longer time but nothing seems to make a difference. Coating on Arches Platine, using the recommended mix of the emulsion to which I sometimes add Ammonium Dichromate and/or a couple of drops of Palladium (diluted in distilled water 1:9), toned in Gold. The stains show up in the developer pretty much upon immersion into the developer. Is it a paper issue? A clearing issue? Something else? The image area seems to clear just fine.
