[Digital BW] Coating -- 16x20s

2002-11-16 by Paul Roark

The last time I reported my progress on scaling up to a 16x20, I noted that
I had some unevenness, perhaps due, in part, to my less-than-ideal counter
top and working surface.

I have now upgraded to a 1/4" thick glass and a flatter counter top
(melamine-coated particle board -- still not perfectly flat but OK).
Additionally, I used a towel between the counter top and the glass.
Finally, I used two pieces of butcher paper between the glass and the bottom
of the print.

I'm happy to report the 16x20 I just coated looks fine.  There is no
apparent unevenness.

So, the coating system definitely scales to 16x20.
