Hello Guy,
I did darkroom work for 54 years (started in grade 5) and I can tell
you that using reducers is always pretty much of a surprise-that is
each material
and chemical combination reacts differently. Follow all of Karl's
advice and test before hand on a smaller strip using the roll/unroll
process. You don't
want to loss those big beautiful prints you've worked so hard to
achieve.
Much good luck on the outcome. Don't know if I would have the guts to
undertake such a task.
Cheers,
Dave

The question has to do with the tratment of over-exposed prints and
the use of reducers, such as Farmer's. Does anyone have experience
with the chemistry and the results which they would care to share
with me?........................
