Decaf Rules: Who'd Have Thunk It?
« on: January 31, 2011, 11:10:13 PM »
Being a bit of a coffee head I was pleasantly surprised when the jar of decaf instant which we keep in the cupboard for guests worked so darned well as a stain bath for my latest Polacolor 125i prints. It seems to have caused more damage (in a good way) and left the print looking nicely stylized. To be fair, I did soak this print at a much higher temperature than I normally do, so that was probably more of a factor than the coffee, but it wouldn't have made such a good topic title.
 :D

Fantastic, looks like some type of effect you could use on a CD cover-have you seen 'the soft bulletin' by the flaming lips?
Great result!!
