Re: My own PVA glue sizing experience (attn: marek + the gum woesagain)



Nope (because I always mix fresh), I just was transferring info (from
Chris' previous tests...) -> I thought it could be an explanation for
Phritz' curious case.

In any case, I still don't think to let the emulsion sit that much,
for the sake of consistency - especially in a calibration/test
setting.

Loris.
