[Alt-photo] Re: buffer free paper

[Diana Bloomfield]

Hi Jennifer,

I used the Masa some time ago, and I used one very thin coat of Gamblin PVA, which worked for multiple layers.  As I remember, it wasn't really necessary, though.  It's been a while since I used it, but I have some paper left.  I'll try it again.  But on the slick side, I'm pretty sure when I didn't use the PVA, it worked just fine too.

Loris-- thanks.  I'm gonna try it for pt/pd and check out that easy clearing. :)
