Re: [Digital BW] Re: PremierArt Platinum Rag: anyone familiar?

Hi Dario:

I find it to have a very beautiful off-white semi-gloss to matte  
surface with a unique look. It's substantial in weight and as John  
says, it requires matte black in my opinion.

I wrote an article here where I described it in greater depth, as  
well as a few similar "Fiber Gloss/Semi-gloss" papers: <http://

All the best,

Andrew Darlow
