Hi:
Tried a temperaprint last night. blended an egg, added ammonium
dichromate (ratio 2 parts egg to 1 part AdC) added some water color
pigment.
coated yupo - did 3 or 4 coats - letting it dry between coats, and then
exposed it.
Processed it by putting the print in water until the dichromate dissolved
and then put it in a tray with a sheet of glass on the bottom, added a
drop of dishwashing detergent and proceded to carefully roll a roller
across the print under water. Everything peeled up and floated away.
:(
I asssume the print was underexposed. In gum printing I can usually see
the image in the exposed unprocessed paper. I didn't see any image after
exposing the temperaprint.
Any other reasons for the image to peep away. Too many coatings?
Completely incorrect processing technique?
