Digital BW, The Print

Just wanted to follow up on this.

I retested the Innova smooth cotton, and found that it holds up well 
in cold water. If you use hot water it doesn't last much longer than 
it takes the paper to become completely saturated, with the coating 
breaking away.

Museo Max did OK under cold water, but it gets very slimy, and the 
coating slides off completely where you touch the paper. Under hot 
water it produces a slight foaming in the sink, then the coating 
starts to break off much like the Innova papers.

Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Satin survived several minutes under hot water, 
long enought to become completely limp in all dimensions. It's drying 
now to see what the surface looks like after the test. I suspect it 
will survive nicely like the other Hahnemuhle papers I've tested 
under hot water.

I also find that the Museo Max is only slightly less fragile than 
other papers, it seems to scuff about as easily as the others, but it 
doesn't show the signs as badly. I wouldn't suggest it for postal use 
due to the water resistance. It gets slimy immediately, and I think 
it might "glue" itself to other mail if it were to get wet.
