Sorry for jumping in but I've used Nelson Gold toner as sold by the
Photographers Formulary and Art Craft.

With both suppliers I had no problems achieving a very nice warm tone with
Ilford Multigrade III FB, Multigrade IV FB, and Forte FB VC. I simply
followed directions. There is also a method of replenishment that works
very well that can be found in the darkroom cookbook.

I guess this should be directed to Andy Buck not Jonathan Bailey, sorry you
are having problems Andy as this can be a beautiful delicate toner for
certain images. It is very important to maintain a 110F temperature of the
toner. Its a bit cumbersome for large prints but I simply use a water bath
that I place the toning tray in.

Hope this helps.
