Yes I bought a quantity of it a while back and had no flaking problems what so ever. I love the feel and the look of the paper. What are some of the things you can do to avoid the flaking problems? Are the Royal Jazz and Wells River the same paper or are they just really similar. Thanks for your help. Steve

According to mediastreet.com royal jazz and Royal Plush are the same paper. The only difference is that the Royal Plush is thicker. Does this mean that the Royal Plush is the same paper as the William Turner 310? Steve Schaefer

I have Royal Jazz in my hand and it is definitely William Turner. Its my understanding that Royal Plush is German Etching...which is a alphacellulose paper (William Turner is rag)...but I don't have any so I can't say for sure.

I frequently find that a drafting brush isn't abrasive enough to do the job...but the touch is the key regardless of the tool. I think the surface on the heavy weight william turner is less of a problem than the lightweight version...wich is the most finicky paper I've ever printed on. Robert

Rub down the paper with a very soft cloth. Rub hard! This should prevent most of the problems, but get your print in a glassine or clear sleeve quickly. Don't let it shuffle around with other pictures in a stack. Jerry "steven0356 " wrote:

I've never had any burnishing problems, and I've been doing this for a while now. Just be sure the cloth is very soft. Rub fairly hard. Brushing isn't really good enough, wells river really flakes, especially if you have large areas of black in the image. jerry Carolyn Frayn wrote:

I believe what Jerry was saying was the Royal Plush was a different name for German Etching paper. German Etching and William Turner are obviously not the same Hahnemuhle papers, and yes William Turner is a rag paper, and German Etching is not. Royal Jazz is definitely the lightweight William Turner...what is up in the air is whether Royal Plush is the heavy weight German Etching or William Turner. The Hahnemuhle naming mess revisited once again. Robert

Wow, what a basic subject such as how hard to rub a paper prior to printing can excise a variety of views.<g> As a practical matter for me, as a new Photorag user (I've used Turner a little bit a long time ago), what really is the best way to go with Photorag paper? In my climate it is dry, and I had problems in the past, although I now have a humidifier set with an electronic gizmo to keep level around 40% RH. I'd use 308 gsm in letter and 13x19 sizes. I've used a drafting brush on Eclipse with good sucess. TSS photo recomends an anti-static glove whisk across Photorag....maybe somewhere between Carolyn and Jerry?? Or? I assume if I don't spray the image with Printguard or something, it will also scuff up fast.

The Wilhelm tests for Generations + Royal Plush started before William Turner was introduced by Hahnemuhle. Royal Plush is German Etching as far as I know. William Turner should also have a slightly smoother surface than Royal Plush aka German Etching. I believe that William Turner appeared on the market in the summer of 2000 just after the Drupa. Hahnemuhle's range and names are clear, the resellers should name their papers a bit more Hahnemuhle like ;-) Ernst

I think I see where some of the confusion comes from. On mediastreet.com web site they state that: " Royal Jazz 190 gsm is a thinner version of our very popular Royal Plush. " But, When you go down to the Royal Plush they state that the "Royal Plush is somewhere between the Royal Jazz and the Royal Weave". Are these the same paper or not? This is all very confusing. If it's not the same paper, does anyone sell a cheaper , renamed version , of the William Turner 310 gsm? Thanks for your help. Steve

The real problem papers are William Turner and German Etching...which I personally don't use because of their poor production quality. With Eclipse and Photorag there is very little rub off problem...so your anti-static glove should be fine. Robert

I believe the straight scoop is that: Royal Jazz = 188gm William turner Royal Plush = 310gm German Etching I have the Royal Jazz and it is 188gm William Turner. It has now been confirmed by several people that Royal Plush is 310gm German Etching. Media Street doesn't sell the other combinations. Just for reference the 188 and 310gm William Turner papers have different surfaces that can vary quite a lot from lot to lot because of Hahnemuhule's poor quality control. It ranges from cotton soft to a sandpaper feel. They also freely vary optical brighteners. I've seen William turner with OB's and also without OB's in the coating. There is always a little bit of OB's in the paper...they must use old t-shirts as a pulp source. Robert On 12/14/02 5:47 AM, "steven0356 <stevenr@...>" <stevenr@...> wrote:
