Drying time

2007-09-16 by Richard Smallfield

Hi,
I've always left my Ultrachome matte prints for at least 12 hours before framing or sleeving.

Is there any rule of thumb about how long one really needs to leave a print before sleeving or framing?

I suppose humidity would be a factor.

(The truth is I'm dying to frame a print I did a few hours ago.)

thanks,
Richard
