I'm curious if the actual coating is acid-free, as I understand that 
some of the acid-free papers actually have acid in the coatings.

But, as Paul pointed out, Wilhelm testing still gave those "acid-
free" papers a longevity rating of 100-300 yrs.

I know the BC is using an acid free coating on their Chromata White 
canvas, and I think another product or two of theirs.

Just a thought....
