FP32 Refiner
I was experimenting with using the FP32 refiner in FLUX and I am sharing my settings and findings.
The short of this is they work amazing but need a NSFW Finetune

Image of a bottle (SDXL)
In both images BRSGAN 2x was used to upscale a 1024x1024 image to 2048x2048
For the comparison the 2048x2048 image was down scaled using linear down scaling and the difference was overlayed.
You can see the changes are amazing. (The zip contains both the 1024 and 2048 images to compare.

Impact Statement
Refiners work amazing well even when quantized to Q8.
They can be used even out of the normal scope with correct settings.
SDXL refiner does not work well on NSFW or even R rated images.
We need a NSFW finetune of FP32 SDXL refiner
