As I stated in a previous message I assumed that many Pt/Pd workers 
would be familiar with Arentz' #7 mixture since he is one of the 
premier platinum printers in the world and his book where this 
mixture is described is probably the best and most widely available 
work on the subject. If the information provided was not sufficiently 
explicit then I take full responsibility for all damages and 
liability that may result from the lack of full disclosure.
