RE: Van Dyke and Kallitype
Stane, > will you explain a bit about your gold additive in the VDB senzitizer and what effect you get? How much gold you added to the solution? > I generally add 1 drop of 4% AuCl to every 10 drops of VDB sensitizer. You can use lower percentage of gold concentrate if you wish. This causes a color shift towards mauve brown. You can add more gold if you wish which will cause the print color to shift toward a reddish tone. If you double coat add the gold in both coats. Experimentation is the key to determine what you prefer and what works for you. > Maybe you have some examples you can put them on the web? > Sorry but I don't. Don
