I have three bottles of oxalate, labeled solution #1, solution #2(pt) and
solution #2(pd). I've been doing a 50-50 mix of #1 and #2(pt). I'll run my
next tests with just #1.

I got a mixed package of paper, so have some platinotype natural. I'll run
my next round of tests with natural (unless you've heard bad reports on it
as well).

I'll try this next, after the oxalate and paper changes.
Thanks much for the ideas.
