Red River Premium Matte

2009-12-19 by john

Be very careful with these Red River papers. Many of them simply glow with the saturated obas and get you all excited until they shift. 

Personally I've found their Premium Matte and Polar Matte to have oba burn out within  a couple of year, and that is even in dark storage! . From  bright white to dead gray in the paper base, even when sprayed. I think you get what you pay for.
