Hello Peter, > Clayton Jones suggested printing and then "curing" an FS print >before displaying or selling it. Sounds like an interesting >idea, though maybe not a practical one... would it be uniform >warming throughout the print? And how long would one have to wait? I have a print made with the MIS-VM ink set on EAM that has been hanging unprotected here in my work room with flourescent light 14 to 18 hours per day for over 6 months (4/27/02). It was still noticably warming at around 4 months (in August) and seems to have finally settled down. It also faded a bit, most noticable in the mid-tones, so the changes were not completely uniform. This was not measured on any instrument, just my eyes. For reference, right next to it is a black-only print of the same image done at the same time. It warmed slightly over a period of a few weeks (that I could notice) and today looks very close in color and density to one freshly printed. Regards, - cj
