Fotospeed Palette Toner Kit (Titanium Yellow, Vanadium Yellow, Red and Blue)

Palette Toner has pushed open the boundaries of metallic toning to allow an array of vibrant hues to be created from a single kit. Using traditional toning methods the four colors contained in the kit can be combined to produce a multitude of tones. Being a traditional toning system it is controllable and allows many copies of the same toned print to be made. Palette Toner is suitable for both Fiber and Resin Coated B&W papers.

The kit comprises four toners : Titanium Yellow, Vanadium Yellow, Red and Blue. Each color dilutes 1+9 with water and to it Activator must be added directly to the toner working solutions at the rate of 25ml/Ltr before the toner will tone. The Intensifier is only to be added to the Blue and Red elements for those who want the colour to really shout out . Additionally, not in the kit, you will need table salt and Hypo (sodium thiosulphate) crystals for clearing and refixing.

Within each color there are many hues obtainable. The variety is immense simply by adjusting time and combinations. Like the three primary colours (Yellow, Magenta and Cyan) placing the print to be toned into each solution for varying times creates a colour mix in the final image. Washing between solutions is essential. The working solutions can be rebottled for further use except for the blue. The blue working solution will not keep.
