Re: Transporting wet prints

I have a lot of fogged RC prints I can show you. Perhaps
it's actually separation that causes the fogged look, but
fog is the visual result. You're right. It takes about
twenty minutes of soaking to ruin RC paper.

You should throw them away. I have used RC paper since 1975
and only
the older papers were subject to fog (maybe), particularly
Kodak, i
will try to 'fogwash' some current Ilford paper. Perhaps it
is the
loss of brightener in your papers. To me, loss of brightness
is not
the same as fog.
