I recently purchased a starter pack of Palladio Soft Velvet pre-coated paper on the auction site. Apparently, this was sold as part of a kit with the developer and clearing agent.
Bernie's Photo in Pittsburgh (it's been a long time since I was in Pittsburgh, and even longer since I visited Bernie's on the Northside) has some of the original developer and clearing agents for sale. The developer (
on eBay here) states that it's 'citrate based.' Would anyone have a recommendation on using Sodium Citrate with Palladio Velvet? I'm guessing Ammonium Citrate might be a little cold for my tastes.
Similarly, the original clearing agent is EDTA based (also on eBay
here). Any experience with mixtures and workflows?
Since I only have ten sheets of 5x7 paper, I don't want to lose any more than necessary with testing.
