Judy,

I appreciate your help. By "solutions" I mean a remedy and not necessarily
a soup....but I would welcome, actually love a bichromate or any other formula
that you might dig up. Often I will print up an image somewhat darker
than normal, then bleach it to varying degrees, overall and/or selectively
without bringing it back up in solution B....like the look and resultant
tones but indeed, would love to experiment with other possibilities.

The second portion of your post intriques me. I do not recall any
post on rubber cement from last week. Is it possible that I didn't get 'em ?
Ah, the mysteries of the net. If they dealt with applying the stuff to selected
portions of the print, then toning around them, this is not my intent....rather,
I would like to "paint" certain portions of my image away after they've
been hit
with solution B. Maybe your bichromates just might work.

Thanks for your help on this one.

Jingle Bells,

David
