Hi Hamish,
I had a chance to try it just recently, and I love the number of steps I can
get with this paper, but for my emulsion, it stains if printed without sizing.
Do you size this paper for your gum print?

The result is beautiful. I am interested and curious about whether you do 6-8
coats for the reason of control, for thickness, for different color coats as
in your images, or for any specific / main reason?
Suppose you want to do a monochrome gum with black only, would you also do 6-8
coats?
Thanks in advance!
Dave
