..the higher steps of The Stouffer stepwedge, as well as the sky in the
image were paperwite after processing, so I guess it isn't fogging..

..Wattage I do not know, the airstream was about 10 cm away from the paper,
the air warm, but you can keep your hand in it, it's not too hot (I was
actually surprised that the emulsion can take it, I saw no fogging).

After the drying step (1-2 min) the paper was immediatly exposed

..until the shine goes to matte (say 1-2 min)...

 

What is a ul?

..microliter, proper symbol is ml 1/1000 part of a ml (mililiter), I use
micropipets

Try
> adding an additional drop of metal and coat a larger area.

..why a larger area?

 

Thanks,
