By adding Zonal Pro HQ Warmtone to my Bromophen/glycin I can get the
green out of Agfa Multicontrast Classic. Without it, no amount of
selenium tone will rid me of this green cast. It will split-tone
weirdly, before a good color results. For some reason, the Zonal-Pro,
not only starts out a little warmer, it also allows a good amount of
toning to occur. The final color is excellent.

Can anyone tell me what chemistry is at work in the Zonal-Pro? Can I
add something to my regular developer to duplicate this effect, without
having to spring for the costly Zonal-Pro? Is there an Agfa user out
there who does not have the green problem? What developer are you
using? The only warm-tone developer I haven't tried is the one I should
obviously try and that is the Neutol-WA. I thought I had ordered it,
but mistakenly got the Neutol, sans WA. But I am still curious why the
Zonal-Pro is so successful changing the paper color, as from what I
understand developers have modest color changing abilities. Thanks, KAS

Just went to try and find my old copies of the MSDS, to no avail.
Pretty sure its got Dimezone in it. You can call Alta Photographic
and ask to speak with one of their chemists 918-335-2582. They probaly
will give you general info.
