PrintMaker's Friend- Zoom Presentation

The Printmaker's Friend is a non-toxic replacement for gum and dichromate. It will hopefully go on sale on Amazon in the US and www.printmakersfriend.com in Spain and the rest of the world in 2024.

THIS IS AMAZING!! I am a student at George Mason University and have been looking for alternative processes in the film photography world to be more environmentally conscious and this just made my day. I can't wait to buy this and try it out :)

This print method should be known as Griertype when they start to hit the galleries. 😛

Can your sensitising solution also be used as a chromate alternative for oil prints?

[@carbonprint]

I haven't tested it, so I'm not sure.

[@s70cas7ic0]

Is this also a replacement for carbon transfer?
Can you elaborate a little on that?
Thanks

[@carbonprint]

No, it's just for replacing the use of dichromate in gum printing. I use non-toxic DAS to replace dichromate in carbon printing. I'm putting together a group order if interested.

@@carbonprint thank you, I’m getting interested in contact printing but I’m nowhere near to actually trying it out yet.
I understand the process is quite different compared to carbon transfer, but I was wondering if the final product could compare to carbon transfer as print quality goes.

@@s70cas7ic0 They can be very similar or very different. Depends on how you handle the process. Both can create high-quality prints. Carbon wins for resolution.
