Re: carbon transfer (mainly: digital negatives)
Hi phritz. If it's cheap and can is listed under "technical gelatin", then it's not "real" rabbitskin glue but hide glue (= very high bloom gelatin?) instead. Your relatively high sugar content is already telling me something; hide / rabbitskin glue is pretty brittle when dry, therefore you needed higher content of plasticizer, right?
