Re: Bronzing - A Crazy Idea

Peter- If I had been aware that MIS already had their version of 
GLOP I would have tried it already. They've been testing some 
version of this for a couple years, perhaps its time has come. As 
for damaging my printer-heck it was free, and intended for the 
trashpile because the color head isn't working, so no great loss 
anyway. Mind you, I don't see why it should damage the K head, as 
long as I flush it out and clean it afterwards. I'll keep you posted.
