No. Also consider trying a glass rod to coat with. You will find
that you will use significantly less sensitizer because it all ends
up on the paper rather than being washed down the sink when you clean
your brush. B&S carries these under then name Puddle Pusher. You
can also fabricate your own without much trouble.

What do you mean? How did the the 2.5 point compare to the thicker
varieties? Also, did you have problems with the paper being very
wrinkled after it dried? Were you able to flatten it without
creasing?

Try coating the paper on both sides, print rather dark, then tape the
print to a window (or other backlit light source such as a light
box). Wow!!
