I can tell you that 1:10 is way too strong. 1:20 should be the maximum for a color change, but weaker mixtures also work well and are necessary for the colors you seek.. I believe that the staining you describe comes from under fixing. I go from the fix to the selenium bath directly, with hypo-clear added as well. Then you must wash, hypo-clear again, and final wash. Forte is great! I love it.
