Bob,
       The simple answer is no problem. Egg white seems to stick on
anything! Try Fabriano 100% cotton mould made paper. Let the albumen coating
dry for a day or two. Try also on wood, stone, glass or the dining room
wall. Not forgetting albumen/arrowroot. The best arrowroot comes from your
neck of the woods. Randall Webb
