Response to Dektol and Ilford MGIV RC Deluxe

I can't remember doing any contact prints of colour negs on normal B&W paper, but enlargements weren't very good unless you were looking for huge grain and weird tonal representation. Something to do with the paper not sensitive to the colour negs in some wavelengths or something (someone chime in and add the reason.. I'll remember then!) Kodak make 'Panalure' paper for doing this, which must be handled in compete darkness. All the 'good' info may not be appropiate, but if you're contact sheets aren't what you expect, now you know partially why :)
