Title: POP Paper
Post by: Ron on May 11, 2006, 07:55:25 PM

I received a 'tester pack' of printing-out-paper (POP) yesterday - 15 sheets of double-weight fiber, silver chloride paper with chems.  Has anyone got experience with this stuff?!  If so, I'd love to hear from you.  Here's a link:

Thanks in advance.

Good stuff. I have used it a bit and still learning. i expose both under sunlight and a UV light using split fames. wash in water then I have been toning an platinum but gold is cheaper and more usual i think. Fix in Hypo. Remember, the print bleaches out a lot when put in Hypo so you need to overexpose.
best results i have had comes from 5x7 HP5 negs
Have fun

Thanks, Andrea!  I have printed 4 negs on it and think it shows incredible promise.  I also found out there is another company manufacturing this stuff other than Centennial.  Don't have it linked on this computer, but when I find it, I will post.  Just a stunning paper.
