Re: [Digital BW] Re: Smooth uncoated paper?

2002-10-17 by Robert Morrison

For smooth papers to coat...try two from Hawk Mountain:

http://www.hawkmtneditions.com/page2.html

Merlin is a coated paper and Red Tail is their uncoated one.  I know the
Merlin coats nicely.  The blacks are poor without coating, but the final
effect is really nice coated.  Osprey, another hawk mountain paper, has a
different coating on it and does not coat well...Merlin's the one need for a
coated paper.
