Maybe this is the solution with negative developed by Pyro. anybody tried that before?

There is no need to use Panalure to print a pyro neg. Pyro negatives print perfectly well with the full range of black and white papers available, and most of them offer much better tonal rendition than Panalure.

I know but the problem is with contrast. Negatives developed in Pyro will print with harsh contrast on graded paper. I don't know if the effect is the same with polygrade paper as with Panalure.

I think is your developing times, my Pyro and Catechol negs print beautifully on Oriental graded paper.

If your pyro negs print with too much contrast on a grade 2 paper, they are probably overdeveloped.
