Re: Unknown areas in Gum printing?, etc.

Chris.

Just for the record my suggestion (based on my own practice) was to use a gelatin hardened with dichromate (reduced to trivalent chromium) as sieze. This combination is always available for gum printers.

I have no experience with gum/dichromate sieze.
