I asked the question about using P.O.P. paper for oil prints. Some people
thought that the excess silver might cause me some problems, others thought
that I was going around my elbow to get to my thumb...
I'm simple trying to help myself as much as possible. Getting the exposure,
Temp. ink and swelling all correct is a challenge as you know about most
Alternative processes. I'm shooting 11 x 14 paper negs in my camera so a
contact speed is ok with me. I've sized Rieves BFK in trays of warm
Gelatin for Gum prints before, would 2 or 3 coatings, dried between each
give me a thick enough gel coating for oil prints? I could simple make a
contact Bromoil if I knew the right paper. Any help would be appreciated!
