I use Ilford papers, although I did try a sample pack of Fomatone MG recently.

MG-IV FB is Ilford's standard paper if you want to use fibre-based papers and MG-WT FB if you prefer a warmer image. There is also Galerie which is available in grades 2 and 3 only.
My contact-sheets are made on MG-IV RC glossy paper.

Multigrade developer diluted 1+9 works very well with all of those papers.
I also use Ilford Stop-Bath, Rapid Fixer and Wash-Aid, as they are available at my local photographic store.
