Fabriano Fab 5 Paper

[Bruce]

Has anyone used Fabriano Fab 5 paper for alt photo processes?

Does it have to be treated if used for Cyanotype?

Thanks!

Hi Bruce,

I am using it often for cyanotype and it give a nice deep blue whithout any treatment. I prefer the Hot Pressed version.

Thanks! How about for gum or another alt process?

for gum I allways gelatin size paper, after that about any paper will work, this one too
it's also excellent for van dyke brown
I consider it being a very good all round paper
