Adox Selenium Toner is used for archival finishing of resin coating, fine art and fibre papers. In fact to many, including ourselves, selenium toning is an essential part of the process for making any prints that are intended for sale.
This toner visibly improves the black tones in the print and gives the lighter areas nicer detail. The archival properties of prints are improved as selenium kills off any silver that can react to light and cause fading to sepia over a period of time
Dilution:
- for toning: 1+20 to 1+50
- for print stabilisation only: 1+100 to 1+400
The concentrated solution will last practically forever in a sealed bottle.
Comes in a 500 ml bottle.

Always take extreme care when using selenium toner. Wear gloves and goggles, and never heat the solution as the fumes it gives off are poisonous.
Selenium is hazardous to wildlife – as it is also to human health. In many regions, it is illegal to dispose of the spent solution by pouring it down the sink. Before using selenium, contact your local authority for advice on safe disposal of selenium toner residues.
