| I agree, Jeremy, preshrinking does not take that much time. I just do a bathtub full at any old time and then always have that step done. It's the sizing that is the PITA. In fact, it is much easier to preshrink the 8x10's because they are small and hang nicely. If I lose prints to any one thing, it is not color or overexposure or whatnot, it is always misregistration. If I can't get it to work by wetting the back of the print with a damp sponge until the image fits the negative, I rip the print in half and toss it so I am not tempted to keep fooling with it. ARGGHHH. Almost makes me want to do the affix-to-aluminum process but I don't have a home dry mount press nor a big sink. Chris

Now I just preshrink for everything and not worry about it. On Nov 23, 2009, at 7:30 PM, Paul Viapiano wrote:
Hi all...
I was wondering among all your collective experience: How large can a
multilayer gum print be made without a preshrink and without registration
problems?
