Subject: [pure-silver] Sterling contact paper?
I don't know much about this but a friend have some Sterling contact
printing paper in Grade 1 and 2. Please let me know if you know anything
about the contact paper and the usage. Or if you have experience about
Sterling papers.

If this is conventional contact printing paper its just like enlarging paper but much slower. At one time all of the major paper manufacturers made at least one contact printing paper, some made two or three. The speed of these papers varied but all required exposure to relatively intense light compared to enlarging paper. A typical contact printing box had four or more lamps of about 60 watts for an exposure of perhaps 15 to 30 seconds. One could also use a printing frame with a household lamp of perhaps 60 to 100 watts at a couple of feet for exposures of several seconds to perhaps a minute.
Relatively fast contact papers were made for photo-finishing (like Kodak Velox) and some very slow ones (like Kodak Athena or Azo) were made for general purpose studio work.
I am interested that such paper is still made.
Hi !
Sterling paper was made in India.
The factory has burned some years ago and was replaced by a shopping mall.
So you will find difficult to re-stock if you like the stuff !
