We now need to fade back the blur effect by using the fade command from the edit menu.(see image below).

Select a value of fade around 20 to 30 %

Once OK has been clicked, then select the RGB channel from the
channels palette.

You should now have a picture that simulates B&W Infra Red film like below.

End.
