Split Toning with Polytoner<br />

Ryuijie Douglas<br />

I use Ilford Multigrade IV and Polytoner to split-tone my ice form photographs. As<br />

Polytoner is no longer available, here is a substitute:<br />

Distilled water, 500.0 ml<br />

Sodium carbonate, monohydrate, 160.0 g<br />

Kodak Brown Toner, 320.0 ml<br />

Kodak Rapid Selenium Toner, 80.0 ml<br />

Water to make 1.0 liter<br />

Toning Procedure<br />

After processing the print, give it a short wash. Place the print in the Polytoner 1:30 for<br />

about 30 seconds. Move the print to a water bath and let it sit without any agitation.<br />

Toning comes up slowly. When the print reaches the desired color remove it from the<br />

water bath and wash normally.
