PermaJet Alpha paper

2004-06-10 by Paul Roark

Jobo, which will distribute Alpha in the U.S., just received it's first
production batch of Alpha, as well as the other papers in the new PermaJet
line.  Dealers do not have it yet, but it can be purchased direct from Jobo
by calling 1-800-664-0344.

 

Just to summarize my experience with Alpha: it is a cotton paper (300 gsm, I
think) with no or almost no flaking (like UltraSmooth & PremierArt Scrapbook
& Hot Press, and much better than the H. papers); it has no optical
brighteners (also like Scrapbook, et al.); it has a look (hue) more like
Moab Entrada Natural; AND it has a dmax of 1.69 (v. PhotoRag 1.7 & the
others at about 1.6).  This combination of features makes this paper about
the best I know of - if you like creamy, non-OBA cotton papers.
