Polaroid pos/neg films do not respond (much) to overdevelopment.
Sorry. One method that will work to increase a pos/neg is to
selenium tone the neg. Use 50% pure out of the bottle Kodak
selenium toner and 50% working strength hypo clear. After the
neg is cleared and washed, tone in this selenium bath for between
1 and 5 minutes. It will add quite a bit of contrast. Do wear
gloves and work in good ventilation.
