Hi, I use Ilford Multigrade RC glossy paper for my contact sheets and, after I squeegee them, hang them up to dry on a wire using a clothes pin on one corner. They always dry flat. Strange that your prints curl. Maybe because they are lying flat?????


Cheers, Bogdan

Ever since I started printing (~8 years ago) my RC prints (Ilford Multigrade IV, pearl finish) develop a slight curl when drying (the corners turn up, so the print has a slight bowl shape). After rinsing for 3-4 minutes, I squeegee them on each side, then place them on fiberglass screens, and they always have the curl when dry. Why? Shouldn't RC prints dry perfectly flat?
