RE: Lithium palladium vs. normal palladium
A few things have happened. First of all my densitometer was safely put away. Second my last tests were all made with Arches Platine, some years ago. I just looked it up and I was using about 1.5 ml metal plus 1,5 sensitizer, single coat for a 12x20 inch print. In those days I developed my double coat method (explained some months ago). I am a POP and brush man. After getting trouble with Arches I started to work on COT 320 but, since COT is well sized I needed not that much sensitizer (water?) anymore but did not check on Dmax. I always print with clean borders and am a grey loving person. I don't use so much black in my prints. Of course I had more reasons to believe that my amount of sensitizer was sufficient but that goes to far to discuss in public. It is funny how you can drift away and still have the notion that you are very close to the shore.

See? Even at 0.15ml per 10 square inches, I use about 80% more than Witho!?
