Before reading Rudman's excellent book I had luck with Oriental Seagull VC
paper and even Ilford's multigrade RC and fiber, using Arista's lith
developer (diluted ~1:10). Those aren't claimed to be the best papers for
this process.

In any case, patience is the key (i.e., sometimes 20-30 min tray
development)! But the results are worth the wait.
