QTR 3MK R1800 curve for Premier Art Platinum Rag?
2008-02-29 by the_des_bois
Hello, I was wondering if anyone had and would like to share a QTR 3MK R1800 curve for Premier Art Platinum Rag? I just received a small box of this paper and find it very interesting. I like the canvas like texture and the silver reflection it gives in the midtones. I tried using a modified 260 PK BO curve but it really saturates the blacks. Also tried the Premier Art R1800 3MK Matte BW curve with it with similar results. It prints too dark and I loose all shadow details. I'd like to give this paper a good try on my R1800 with 3MK. I know it smears with Eboni but I guess it could be very viable using the recently posted approach (by Paul) for Ilford Gold Silk and a Premier Art Shield spray coat. Or is Ilford Gold Silk (IGF) that much better? Thanks for your help, Denis Bouchard
