Re: [Digital BW] Great new fine art papers from Innova

2005-04-13 by john dean

I don't know what you are talking about? I've been using German Etching for 5 
years with all kinds of inksets, and it is a fine beautuful paper, a beautuful paper that 
scratches, scuffs,and flakes like nothing I've ever seen. Water resistant? Are you 
kidding? Not in my experience unless you spray it with three coats of Premier Art. 
I've done a lot of big things with it for years, like 30x40's, 20x24's, and 40x60's and 
believe me if you breathe on it in the wrong way it will flake in the blacks, same with 
one of my all time favourite papers that I used for 10  20x24's  this week with 
monochrome, William Turner. Fantastic deep blacks, gorgeous tonality, awsome 
texture, but tender as a little babys butt.
