VC Select
Offering commercial and creative printers a premium quality, high speed, variable contrast resin coated paper, VC Select gives the busy professional printer the quality alternative - superb image rendition with a high speed emulsion one stop faster than most. By cutting exposure times by 50%, VC Select can significantly reduce valuable production time. Deep, rich, neutral blacks, excellent tonal separation and crisp whites characterise this paper. VC Select offers image excellence, high emulsion speed, cool, crisp sparkling prints, backed by the quality and consistency of an ISO 9002 accredited manufacturer.
Description
VC Select is a black and white enlarging paper with a polyethylene coated
base, coated with a variable contrast emulsion. Using standard colour filtration,
contrast grades from 00 to 5 are achievable in half grade steps. VC Select
is available in four separate surface finishes - Glossy, Satin, Fine Lustre
and Fine Lustre Warmtone.
Safelights
Open only in a darkroom, illuminated by safelights Ilford 902 or Kodak OC
containing 15W bulbs or equivalent. Red safelights may also be used. The
safelights should be at least one metre from the paper at all times and
good working practice of keeping exposure to safelight at a minimum should
be adopted. Unused paper should be returned to its original packaging for
storage.
Processing
To optimise d.max, grade spacing and tonal rendition, a multicontrast chemical
system such as Kentmere VC Select Plus Developer and Fixer is recommended,
under both machine and dish development. Also recommended, in alphabetical
order, are: Agfa Multicontrast, Champion B&W Multicontrast, Ilford Multigrade,
Kodak Polymax and Tetenal Variospeed developers, together with their appropriate
fixers. Equivalent products from other manufacturers should give similar
results. We do not recommend conventional manual developers, which tend
to inhibit both d.max and contrast. Detailed processing recommendations
are included with all boxes and packages.
Surfaces
Glossy
This paper has built-in glaze to provide the maximum black density and overall
print brilliance. Maximum gloss is achieved through hot air drying.
Fine Lustre
An attractively textured surface which combines the depth of image and blacks
normally only found with glossy papers, with the subtlety and handling advantages
of a semi-matt.
