Arcival? That what selenium means in the darkroom. You don't use it, you've got a green print with limited value. Use it after fixing twice and washing long enough. Hypo clearing and you've taken the green out and protected silver in the print from the sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere. I guess it turns the silver to silver selenite. I like Inkjetting but this calling these inks "selenium" kind of irritates me. Kind of like "Titanium" on a wind breaker.
