I am not sure where I heard this, but a lot of things fly around the
Pt/Pd circles, but I remember several sources commenting on the fact that
the aluminum and/or adhesive on the mounted platinums were in some way
affecting the print. This was also during a discussion about the
addition of irridium to the sensitizer for these prints.

Has anyone recently seen any of these aluminum mounted prints, and how
did they look?

I can't think of the reason why the aluminum would affect them, but does
anyone know what adhesive was used?
