KODAK PROFESSIONAL Sepia II Warm Toner

1.Prepare the bleach and toning baths according to the instructions packaged with the toner.

Note: The bleach bath (Solution A) converts metallic silver in the print to light-sensitive silver bromide. You may want to bleach the print under safelight illumination to minimize the effect of light on the image. However, the effect is extremely small, and may not be noticeable.

2.Immerse a thoroughly washed print in Solution A (bleach) at 18 to 21°C (65 to 70°F), and agitate for about 6 to 8 minutes. Bleach the print until the blacks in the shadows have disappeared or turned yellow (depending on print density and paper grade).

3.Rinse the print thoroughly in running water for 2 minutes.

4.Immerse the print in Solution B (toner) at 18 to 21°C (65 to 70°F), and agitate for about 60 seconds or until no further tone change occurs.

5.Rinse the print thoroughly in running water for 30 seconds.

6.Treat fiber-base prints in a bath made from 1 part KODAK Liquid Hardener* and 13 parts water for 2 to 5 minutes.

Note: If hardening is required for resin-coated prints, you can treat them in the same way.

Wash fiber-base prints in running water at 18 to 20°C (65 to 75°F) for 30 minutes; wash resin-coated prints for 4 minutes.
