Dear Bruce ! I would like to know more about these transfer methods. Could
you please give some more details: do you wet the paper,when you remove the
backing?
how thick is the medium layer? what particular type do you use? what is the
method used for montages in the 60s? how do you mount the image to the new
support? Thank you in advance, Galina. (galina@telepost.no)
