Have you thought about trying the Dokumol direction? I'm not clear what the economic cost of that one would be...

Yes I tried the Dokumol direction last weekend. I used 1+9 dilution, first without KSCN and then with 5g/L of KSCN. The results are awesome, the contrast is very high, the blacks are beautiful. The KSCN helped to clear the highlights without touching (surprisingly!) the shadows, so it increased contrast a little, which I didn't really expect...So the density is great and the film pretty bright. I can take a photo of how the film looks this weekend, if you want. I'll definitely stick with Dokumol and play with dilutions (dilute more) and use of KSCN.
