Re: Lith printing on textured papers

["Jason Revell (in5)" <jason.revell@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have thought about that as well.  I was looking at using the SE1 liquid
emulsion on a water-colour paper however that liquid emulsion is straight
Bromide mix.  From my understanding you really need a Chloro-Bromide paper
to get the best results from Lith printing.  However I shall be getting a
small bottle of liquid light as it say's in the Silverprint catalogue "...
it reacts well to toners of all types including Selenium, also to lith
Development."  How well that is, I guess only trying it out will let me
know.  Has anyone else tried it?

As for making my own chloro-Brimde emulsion, I have not done that since
college.  It would take a little longer and I am sure the repeatability may
not be their for me.  ;-)
