Just wondering: in the literature which you read but didn't cite did
you happen to see any compelling reasons to try Maltodextrin?  I've
tried all kinds of colloids and, while many harden just fine with
dichromates, most aren't worth the hassle.  The primary issue seems to
be one of clearing the unhardened colloid.  Many colloids   don't seem
to want to wash off the substrate without introducing alcohols or
other solvents.
