RE: PT/PD and humidity redux

I restrain from double dipping, I do use a shot glass and single coat.
However, after printing I may do the double malt with a much different glass

Hi Eric,

You are using a 50/50 mix of PT/PD? Do you use a restrainer method or do
you take yours "straight" hehehehe

Mark, I routinely humidify all coated paper in a wooden enclosure ( a box)
with a humidifier that sounds a lot like yours. I leave heavier paper in
for a minimum of 15 minutes after drying and typically 25 minutes before
exposure. I let thin papers like Bienfang 360 sit in the box for at least
10 minutes. This is for a typical 50/50 mix. If I am using more platinum, I
reduce the humidity to increase the speed and keep the cooler color.
