[Alt-photo] Re: ALT- Lithophane, Wax Molding of Gelatin Relief and Contact Print with Wax Relief

[Mustafa Umut Sarac]

Dave,

Thank you. My heart goes to wax but your suggestion is excellent and I had
been posted to APUG this morning. Which photopolymers could be purchased ?
And Where from ? Is it silk screening polymer ? I dont know any brand and
product. Please shed some light.

Thank you ,
Umut
