Re: Where to buy Kentmere Kentona paper?

["Tim Rudman" <tim.rudman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Bertha, You can find these papers in California  under the following
names:

Kentmere Kentona = Luminos Classic Warmtone
Kentmere Art Classic =Luminos Classic Charcoal R
Fotospeed Tapestry = Luminos Tapestry X

They all use the same emulsion on different paper, Kentona =glossy, Art
Classic = fine texture / stipple, Tapestry = heavy texture. The last 2 have
a cream pigment and give the same colours as the first, but slightly more
muted  multi colours in selenium when lith printed.

BE WARNED Kentmere who make them are about to change the emulsion as they
have to remove the cadmium for environmental reasons. I have the prototype
here and will be testing as soon as I have time

If you like the results put a stock in the freezer ASAP! ( in my experience
Kentona freezes better for some reason)
