Can anyone sugest a replacement paper for Kentmere Art Classic? I only disovered this wonderful paper recently, only to find it's being discontinued. Apparently Kentmere can no longer get the base.

There have been reports that Kentmere are testing a new paper base for Art Classic. Their paper supplier no longer makes the original base. The Kentmere (UK) website has a deletion note about a couple of Art products but not Art Classic. I believe it was a Silverprint article in the UK Black & White Mag that mentioned a possible new base. Do not give up hope yet!

The paper Silverprint have decided to offer as a substitute is called 'Fomatone Chamois FB' and can be found HERE on page 4.

Hope this helps,

Lachlan
