4802 Silk Gloss 300gsm
This is a silk finish 300gsm media with overall properties (apart from gloss) that resemble its stable mate. There is a slight loss of Dmax, the Granger Chart remained ragged with the Sihl profile and the metamerism was again low. The media was used to create a very nice, neutral monochrome print and we preferred it overall to the gloss offering – apart from any other consideration, it was less susceptible to marking during handling.
Summary
The good points are the very high Dmax of the blacks, good weight, high(ish) gamut volume and fast drying. You can take your own counsel on the OBA loading. On the one hand it gives bright prints, on the other, it pales the skin tones and will be more vulnerable to yellowing. It is certainly worth a look at though.

Photo Quote: A thing is not what you say it is or what you photograph it to be or what you paint it to be or what you sculpt it to be. Words, photographs, paintings, and sculptures are symbols of what you see, think, and feel things to be, but they are not the things themselves. - Wynn Bullock
