(Sulfuric acid) Hardening paper make them harder to wash well enough or tone, they get in the way of the archival process so are widely not used. Very corrosive and the most smelly thing in your darkroom your whole darkroom experice will brighten becuase of it not being there. Your drains will last longer. I don't use it for negs either most T Max films have the hardener built in thank goodness. They make your prints impervious to spot tone and your prints feel slimy like dead fish when wet. Nope I get the cubetainers of just the "A" and they don't make me buy any "B" (for battery acid in my book.) Mark Rabiner Portland, Oregon USA http://www.rabiner.cncoffice.com/
