Re: Re[2]: [Digital BW] Ilford papers - any tried them?

2002-07-13 by Todd Morton

Richard,

I also spray them right away with Kraylon - give plenty of air it has
toluene (very bad) in it. BTW do any of the other sprays that give good
results not have toluene?

WRT Robert's comments. I get much different and, IMHO, better results with
these papers than Ultima Satin. I have only tried a couple Brightcube
samples. There doesn't seem to be a Conetech profile that does well with
it and I don't have time to fool around with curves - this is not my real
job :-)
