[Alt-photo] Re: Replacement paper for Arches Aquarelle

[Diana Bloomfield]

Hi Gareth,

I've mentioned this before, but I think Magnani Revere is one of the best papers I've ever used for pt/pd printing.  I've also used Arches Platine with no major issues-- but I've found Revere more consistent and easier to clear.

> Hi All, I've been having some clearing issues with Arches Aquarelle for a while now when platinum printing. I'm having to clear first in hydrocholoric and then EDTA to remove the remaining ferric. This is causing a discouloured mottling in the paper which is only evident while the print is wet and translucent or held up to light once it's dried. You can't observe it when the paper is dried otherwise. I was wondering whether anybody out there knows of a paper with similar characteristics I might change to that might fare better.
