Hi.

That sounds excellent, Paul.

But could there be a problem with damaging the surface when I roll 
the prints, to ship them in wide cardboard cylinders? 

And, could there be a gain in Dmax with a similar treatment of 8 
coatings on matte paper do you think, or do you expect that'd be a
waste of time and money?


Btw, I'm enjoying the 3mk prints alot Paul, more and more in fact,
lighting and image tonality has a lot of influence to how I percieve
the blacks in the print, and when the prints are good - they are
excellent. 
so, thanks
