Re: carbon transfer (mainly: digital negatives)



Hi Loris,
The reason for the formaldehyde comes from the 'gelatine-habit'; when
using 'natural' products there is a possibility of mold grow, or?
Maybe there is no need in case of the rabbit glue, i don't know, but
to be on the safe side .... :-)
cheers,
Henk

Hi Henk, why do you add formalin? Wouldn't that harden the glop?
(Well,
maybe it's too little to cause complete hardening but then -> Wouldn't
that cause fog?)
