hi nicholette

if you want the real-thing

they are a site sponsor and are making POP paper as well as
a handful of other alternative photography "stuffs"

for a work around, you might consider soaking regular photo paper
in a 10% solution of potassium nitrate ( dry and repeat ) some people have had luck
with that.

i wish i could give you first hand experience, i made the 10% solution ...
but haven't had a chance to treat my paper with it ....

good luck !

Hi John, I've just emailed them to check it out. I'll wait a bit, and if not forthcoming may try the workaround too. Thanks Nicolette

Hi, I've looked again at the website and see that they do supply POP though it only lasts 30 days and I need longer lasting exposure of two to three months if possible. I aim to place the POP at the bottom of a drawer to register different light and movement caused by opening the drawer during this time. Cheers N

How many times of the dry and repeat cycle, just one repetition or more???

hi cbg

i read you just repeat it once.
( to confuse things more, i have also read you only need to soak it once
and it will work as well ... )
