Re: VanDyke developer



That's exactly how I was expecting; the color would turn into a colder /
darker hue, because of larger particle size due to coagulation...

I'd rather prefer gold toning - which already gives a dark brown (even
black!) result, with the added bonus of increased permanence.

Loris.
